AnnotationThis paper overviews a series of investigations of the sociopsychological meanings of older people's language and communication. Studies include young people's perceptions of younger and older voices, and patterns of information seeking from young and old people. Finally, the findings are meshed with a new model being developed concerning the relationships between language, health and the older adult. (KJ).
