Knowledge of Senior Center Activities Among the Elderly

John A. Krout

This study of the elderly's knowledge of senior center activities shows that the large majority of the aged are unable to identify specific center programs or activities but center users have greater knowledge than nonusers. Traditional predictor variables explain only a small amount of the variation in knowledge. The sources of knowledge cited by the elderly are restricted to newspapers, family and friends, and (in the case of center users) the center publication.
