Response to Cartoons and Attitudes toward Aging.
Sheppard, Alice
Journal of Gerontology, v36 n1 p122-26 Jan 1981
Examined the relationship between responses to cartoons and attitudes toward aging among college students. Analysis revealed four categories of cartoons on aging: disparagement, ineffectuality, obsolescence, and isolation. No significant relationships were found between attitudes and humor appreciation, although age and education were inversely related to several cartoon themes. (Author)
