| Annotation | The study investigated the relationship of activity to the quality of life of nine female African American elders. Contributors to this study identified numerous past and present activities, with the themes: Of the Lord, Doing, Family, Environment, "I had to let it go", and "Just a part of life". Study results indicate that participants had enhanced their quality of life and emancipated themselves through engagement in a variety of activities that hold both real and symbolic meaning.
