The study examined ninth-grade students' attitudes toward older persons prior to, immediately following, and four to six weeks after participating in a two-week unit on aging. The analysis revealed small but significant positive changes in attitudes in the experimental group and no change in the control group immediately following the unit on aging. The changed attitudes of respondents did persist over a four-to six-month period.
