Do Middle School Students Really Have Fixed Images of Elders
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to determine whether combinations of characteristics, abstracted from drawings of elders made by middle school students, grouped together to form cohesive perceptions, or stereotypes, of human aging. METHODS: We abstracted 49 characteristics from drawings of elders made by 1,944 students at two middle schools in San Antonio, Texas, at the beginning of the 1998-1999 school year. Correlational and factor ana…
Measuring Subclinical Disability in Older Mexican Americans
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to develop a comprehensive list of adaptive strategies to prevent disability and use this information to devise a preliminary measure of subclinical disability (state of sustained independence in the presence of latent or manifest functional limitations) suitable for older Mexican Americans. METHOD: Semistructured interviews were conducted with 24 community-dwelling Mexican American elders (> or =65 years …
Heart rate, employment status, and prevalent ischaemic heart disease confound relation between cereal fibre intake and blood pressure
Cross sectional data from a survey of 2512 men aged 45-49 years were used to examine the confounding effects of heart rate, employment, and ischaemic heart disease (IHD) on the relation between cereal fibre intake and blood pressure. Daily cereal fibre intake (g/day) was associated with systolic pressure (r = -0.053, p less than 0.01), diastolic pressure (r = -0.057, p less than 0.01), and heart rate (r = -0.071, p less than 0.01). The associatio…
An Empirical Test of the Subculture of Violence and Miller's Theory of Lower Class Delinquency
There has been a continuing debate over the validity of subcultural theories for the past two decades. The importance of the correct answers lies in the implications for treatment of juvenile gangs. The results of previous studies have been inconclusive with some researchers finding support for various subcultural theories while others have denied the existence of lower class subcultures. This study entailed an empirical test of the subculture of…
