Abstract
430 Cameron University students indicated the extent to which they agreed with 20 statements concerning attitudes toward older and younger students. A principal components factor analysis with varimax rotation indicated three underlying dimensions with statements favoring (1) younger students, (2) age diversity, and (3) older students. A 2 (traditional vs nontraditional students) × 2 (sex) between-subjects multivariate analysis of variance was performed. Traditional students favored younger students significantly more than nontraditional students; nontraditional students favored older students and diverse ages significantly more than traditional students. In addition, men favored younger students significantly more than women. Directions for research are discussed.
