Abstract
In this research the predictive significance of select variables on survival was ascertained among community-living aged of working class background. Sex and the performance of daily routines (RDL) were found to be better discriminators, initially, while age and a perceptual style variable termed field dependence/independence were found to have better long range predictive value.Keywords
