Hori, Shigeo; Fujiwara, Mizuho
Educational Gerontology, v29 n7 p585-95 Aug 2003
A survey of 364 Japanese adults over 60 with physical disabilities found that 87% have learning needs in the areas of health care, communication, and leisure activities. Instrumental/social learning ranked higher among those with serious activity limitations. Expressive/communicative learning was more important for those with moderate limitations.
