Major Factors Contributing to the Stability of a Group, A Study of Eleven Women Members of the Stuyvesant Mothers Club, New York, 1961
Abstract
Background of the Study. 1961 has been called the gerontological year, which culminated with the White House Conference on the Aging. The report of the McNamara Sub—Committee on problems of the Aged and Aging, which is part of the Senate Committee on Labor and Public Welfare, shows that society is now more aware than previously of the special problems of this portion of the population.One of the many problems faced by this age group is the meaningful use of leisure time. In serving the older adults to meet this particular need, additional knowledge of the type of program which should be made available to them is necessary, and this can be done only if we know what it is that they seek in coming to a group.
