Toward A Concept of Homelessness among Aged Men.
Cohen, Carl I.; Sokolovsky, Jay
Journal of Gerontology, v38 n1 p81-89 Jan 1983
Compared homeless aged men who live on the Bowry or in hotel rooms in New York City. Results showed homelessness is not a uniform category. Sociability differentiated them from nonhomeless age peers and socioeconomic status differentiated the two groups; also found differences in each groups' social adaptation. (Author/JAC)
