Zeldin, Shepherd
Journal of Youth and Adolescence, v31 n5 p331-42 Oct 2002
Studied beliefs about the motivation and ability of young people to contribute to their communities and tested the hypothesis that adults with a strong sense of community would have more positive views of young people. Telephone survey responses of samples of 321 and 430 adults shows that society may be receptive to a new frame of mind about young people. (SLD)
