초록
The purpose of this study is to investigate the attitude of housewives towards the elderly people. Three hundred and eighty-one housewives were selected, and a set of questionnaire was used to collect data. The Instrument for this study consisted of 20 item semantic differential format. The results are as follows: Housewives hold a slightly negative attitude towards the old. The main reasons for that were significantly different according to their educational level, religion, economic level, and marital satisfaction. By using a cluster analysis, the housewives could be divided into four groups. Among them, a group with positive attitudes towards the old had an experience living with parents. Based on the results of this study, it is revealed that the data on the attitudes of housewives towards the elderly will offer valuable information in developing education programs to change their negative attitudes.
