College Students' Attitudes toward Residential Care Facilities.
French, Erin M.; Mosher-Ashley, Pearl M.
Educational Gerontology, v26 n6 p583-603 Sep 2000

Residential care was viewed more positively by those with personal experience of elder care and those whose interviewees were satisfied with their lives or mentally alert. (SK)
