Abstract
As a follow-up on a prior study, a biracial sample group (N=98) that was controlled for age and education completed Kogan's Attitudes Toward Old People scale. In an analysis of variance of the results, no difference in attitude could be found by age, race, or social class of the respondents. A significant variation in attitude was found in the over-all study by the number of years of education. Those subjects having more education clearly had more positive attitudes toward older people. This confirms earlier findings.Keywords
