Abstract

The extent and nature of the association between chronological age and activity and between activity and morale are explored empirically. Some qualifications of the association frequently posited between these pairs of variables are suggested. Subjects are 250 noninstitutionalized persons 60 years of age and over participating in a longitudinal study of human aging. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
