Remotivation Group Interaction: Increasing Children's Contact with the Elderly.
Allred, Gladeen B.; Dobson, Judith E.
Elementary School Guidance and Counseling, v21 n3 p216-20 Feb 1987
Attempted to determine whether there would be a change in 15 sixth graders' attitudes toward aging after intergenerational contact with nursing home residents. Found that increased contact with the elderly during the remotivation group interaction program resulted in a slight improvement in children's perceptions of the elderly. (ABB)
