MAJOR STUDY: EFFECTS OF CHOICE AND ENHANCED PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE AGED. BY LANGER & RODIN (1976)
Langer and Rodin set up this field experiment to discover whether personal autonomy or the lack thereof has any effect on the quality of life in the elderly. ...
Physical and mental decline in the elderly is often seen as an inevitable part of ageing but Langer and Rodin’s work demonstrates that this decline can be slowed or even arrested by giving the elderly a sense of control and mastery of their environment. ... Langer & Rodin chose a residential home for the elderly thereby ensuring uniform living conditions.
