Misconceptions about aging and a negative bias against caring for older adults entail unfortunate consequences for society. This study explored the potential of frequent personal contact in reducing misconceptions and improving personal attitude towards older adults. Thirty students, predominantly Asian, with English as their second language, attended senior centers three times per week for 11 months, on the average. They assisted in teaching health promotion classes for the prevention of falls, conducted health assessments by interview, and collected physiological data. At the senior centers, a sample of 70 older adult Americans participated in the health promotion classes and in this evaluation of intergenerational relations. Students completed anonymously two questionnaires; one was objective, testing misconceptions about aging; the other was subjective, rating their reactions to elders at senior centers. Older adults completed, also anonymously, a subjective questionnaire on their reactions to students at their centers. Results on students' misconceptions about aging were similar to those among students at Duke University who did not experience frequent personal contact with well elderly. According to the Facts on Aging Quiz, the overall attitude among students at senior centers was more biased in the negative direction than among Duke students, especially among students who had just joined the project. However, in the subjective questionnaires, students at senior centers expressed feeling at ease at the centers and they disagreed with statements of impatience and frustration. Older adults at the centers had a positive attitude toward the students and most thought that students were sympathetic.
