摘要
The purpose of this study was to determine the hinds of reading material and TV programs that were of interest to older adults. Fifty-eight older adults (mean age = 74.4) and 61 younger adults (mean age = 39) responded to a questionnaire about their reading and TV preferences. Older adults' responses were compared with those of younger adults; chi-square analysis showed significant differences between the two age groups. Differences in preferences were also found between older subjects of different races.
