Abstract

A detailed content analysis study was undertaken to determine how the aging have been portrayed in children's realistic fiction books published in the United States during the period 1945-1975. Findings indicated that overall characterizations of the elderly depicted in the 125 books analyzed were neither negative nor stereotypic but were varied in presentation.
