Abstract

Knowledge of the age cohort factor is valuable to the activities programmer in program planning with the elderly. The authors discuss the cultural paradigm shift which has occurred in the twentieth century. By comparing the socializing outcomes of the elderly industrial age cohort with the postindustrial age cohort, a series of principles for activities programming and specific sets of activities based on these principles are established.
