The Sociological Quarterly 12 (Spring 1971):159-176 State of the Field Series* The Sociology of Aging and the Aged ETmEL SHANAS, University of Illinois at Chicago Circle OLD people are found in every society. Although sociological interest in the aged is relatively recent, the old as a significant part of society have been noted and described for centuries. The ancient Greeks, for example, recognized aging and the aged. The words of the aged Cephalus, quoted in Plato's The Republic (Jowett, 1937:593), have a modem sound about them: Men of my age flock together; we are birds of a feather, as the old proverb says; and at our meetings the tale of my acquaintance commonly is-I cannot eat, I cannot drink; the pleasures of youth and love are fled away: there was a good time once, but now that is gone, and life is no longer life. Some complain of the slights which are put upon them by relations, and they will tell you sadly of how many evils their old age is the cause. The description of the aged given by Cephalus is not unlike some contempor- ary accounts of this group. Current American sociological interest in the aged, however, can be traced directly to the efforts of Ernest W. Burgess as a member of the Committee on Social Adjustment of the Social Science Research Council. Professor Burgess encouraged persons to do research in this area-Otto Pollak, Ruth Shonle Cavan, Robert J. Havighurst, and Clark Tibbitts were among his earliest recruits and colleagues, Havighurst and Tibbitts as fellow members of a subcommittee on social adjustment in old age. Burgess also outlined important sociological topics which should be investigated. In a memorandum to the Social Science Research Council in 1940, he pointed out that while the propor- tion and number of old people in the population were steadily increasing, social scientists had given but little attention to the traits, behavior, and adjustment of the aged (Young, 1941). Professor Burgess saw the elderly as an emergent new problem group of society. Reviewing sociological interest, he listed seventeen possible topics for research on the aged. These topics still have contemporary relevance, and research is still under way on themes such as, "Seniority and its function in social control," and "Types of adjustment to retirement from business and other employment" (Young, 1941). Studies of the aged are now carried on both by social scientists and by many other persons in different disciplines; clinicians, biologists, and social welfare workers among others. There is considerable interdisciplinary work in the field. The range of topics covered is enormous, and a detailed classified bibliography of gerontology and geriatrics appears regularly in The Journal of Gerontology, the official publication of the American Gerontological Society. * This article was prepared with the assistance of State of the Field Editor, Irwin Rinder.

160 THE SOCIOLOGICAL QUARTERLY In the present review paper I shall restrict my discussion to publications in the field which may be considered "sociological," defining these as works which deal with social structural constraints and persons in the middle and later years. Sociological studies of the aged focus in one of eight areas. These are (1) the family; (2) friends and neighbors; (3) housing; (4) work, retirement, and leisure; (5) economic constraints and welfare; (6) health; (7) social roles and life satisfaction; and (8) comparative studies. Obviously, the divisions between the classificatory areas are not clear-cut. While some works have a major emphasis in one area, they may also have minor emphases in others. In this review I shall first discuss briefly some significant landmark works on aged and the aging which appeared before 1965, and then summarize selected more recent publications in the field. Landmark Works In 1957 the Gerontological Society began a project to collect, organize, and publish existing scientific knowledge in the psychological and social aspects of aging for use by teachers in the field of aging. Dr. Wilma Donahue, a psycholo- gist at the University of Michigan, served as chairman of the organizing com- mittee for this mammoth work. The three volumes produced by this project, the Handbook of Aging and the Individual (Birren, 1959), the Handbook of Social Gerontology (Tibbitts, 1960), and Aging in Western Societies (Burgess, 1959), are landmarks in the field. The volume edited by Clark Tibbitts is particularly useful to sociologists containing as it does position papers in most of the sig- nificant areas mentioned earlier. Written more than ten years ago, many of these papers offer theoretical insights and predictions of things to come which are still extremely pertinent. As an example, Streib and Thompson (1960:447-488) in a thoughtful report on their research on the older person in the family point out that many of our ideas of the aged come from the popular press and represent atypical persons. Nowhere is this more true than in the area of family relation- ships. Streib and Thompson's research dealt with older people and their adult children. They stress that older people do not sit alone, neglected by their children. Instead, there appear to be many contacts between old people and their children, while at the same time older people and their children seek in- dependence each from the other. This theme has now become a familiar one in the empirical literature on the family. The three Handbook volumes are exhaustive compendia. A number of other more specific works in the sociology of the aging which have made major contri- butions to the field should also be mentioned here. While there appears to be no major pre-1965 sociological publications in either the housing or economics of the aged, or in comparative studies, there are valuable works dealing with the family, with friendship patterns, with work and retirement, with health, and with social roles. An interesting aspect of all these studies is the way in which the facts about the aged turn out to be completely different from many of the stereo- typical beliefs about them. This is true whether the investigator is reporting on family, friendships, work, health, or social roles. The most important book on the family in old age published before 1965 is undoubtedly Peter Townsend's The Family Life of Old People (1957). Professor

Aging and the Aged 161 Townsend, then a member of the Institute of Community Studies, London, made an intensive study of old people living in Bethnal Green, a working-class area near central London. His findings, like those of Streib and Thompson, indicated that old people were not isolated from their families, and that in old age family life became not less important but more important. Further, he found that only a small minority of old people could be described as isolated, and in a brilliant analysis, he distinguished between isolation, or seclusion from others; desolation, or social loss; and loneliness, a subjective rather than an objective state of being. Written in a clear, concise, and vivid style, the Townsend book is an outstanding contribution to the sociology of aging. Even before Townsend's London survey, an American community survey of the aged had been completed in New York City (Kutner et al., 1956). This was the Kips Bay-Yorkville study, which originally sought to answer three questions: (1) what social and cultural factors facilitate adjustment to aging, (2) what kinds of people successfully adjust themselves to aging, and (3) what forms should be taken by programs designed to meet the needs of the aged. While the volume gives answers to all of these questions, the section of this research report which has had the greatest impact in the field deals with the relationships between the morale of the aged and their social contacts with family, friends, and neighbors. Kutner and his associates developed an index of morale in the aged. They found that among low status groups frequent visiting with family and friends had no relation to morale as they measured it; among high status groups low morale accompanied frequent visiting with children and relatives. This was not true of frequent contacts with friends. This unexpected finding was matched by another finding which violated "common sense think- ing." Like Townsend, Kutner found that there were some persons who did not respond adversely to social isolation (Kutner et al., 1956:118). It is worth noting that the authors of Five Hundred Over Sixty (Kutner et al., 1956), published almost a score of years ago, stress the need to relate social research to social action. This has been a common theme in the literature on the

The Sociological Quarterly 12 (Musim Semi 1971): 159-176 Negara Seri Lapangan * Sosiologi Aging dan Aged ETmEL Shanas, University of Illinois di Chicago orang lingkaran OLD ditemukan dalam setiap masyarakat. Meskipun minat sosiologis dalam usia yang relatif baru, yang lama sebagai bagian penting dari masyarakat telah dicatat dan dijelaskan selama berabad-abad. Orang Yunani kuno, misalnya, diakui penuaan dan usia. Kata-kata yang berusia Cephalus, dikutip dalam Plato Republik (Jowett, 1937: 593), memiliki suara modem tentang mereka: Pria domba usia saya bersama-sama; kami adalah burung bulu, seperti pepatah lama mengatakan; dan pada pertemuan kami kisah kenalan saya sering adalah-aku tidak bisa makan, aku tidak bisa minum; kenikmatan pemuda dan cinta yang hilang lenyap: ada waktu yang baik sekali, tapi sekarang hilang, dan kehidupan adalah hidup tidak lagi. Beberapa mengeluh tentang penghinaan yang diletakkan di atas mereka dengan hubungan, dan mereka akan memberitahu Anda sedih tentang berapa banyak kejahatan usia tua mereka adalah penyebabnya. Deskripsi usia yang diberikan oleh Cephalus tidak seperti beberapa account ary contempor- kelompok ini. Bunga sosiologis Amerika saat ini di usia, bagaimanapun, dapat ditelusuri secara langsung dengan upaya Ernest W. Burgess sebagai anggota Komite Penyesuaian Sosial Dewan Penelitian Ilmu Sosial. Profesor Burgess mendorong orang untuk melakukan penelitian di daerah-Otto ini Pollak, Ruth Shonle Cavan, Robert J. Havighurst, dan Clark Tibbitts di antara direkrutnya awal dan rekan, Havighurst dan Tibbitts sebagai sesama anggota dari subkomite pada penyesuaian sosial di usia tua. Burgess juga diuraikan topik sosiologis penting yang harus diselidiki. Dalam memorandum kepada Ilmu Sosial Research Council pada tahun 1940, ia menunjukkan bahwa sementara proporsi yang dan jumlah orang tua di populasi yang terus meningkat, ilmuwan sosial telah memberikan tetapi sedikit perhatian pada sifat-sifat, perilaku, dan penyesuaian usia (Young, 1941). Profesor Burgess melihat orang tua sebagai kelompok masalah baru muncul dari masyarakat. Meninjau bunga sosiologis, ia tercatat tujuh belas topik yang mungkin untuk penelitian tentang usia. Topik-topik ini masih memiliki relevansi kontemporer, dan penelitian masih berlangsung pada tema-tema seperti, "Senioritas dan fungsinya dalam kontrol sosial," dan "Jenis penyesuaian pensiun dari bisnis dan pekerjaan lain" (Young, 1941). Studi dari usia sekarang dijalankan baik oleh para ilmuwan sosial dan oleh banyak orang lain dalam berbagai disiplin ilmu; dokter, ahli biologi, dan pekerja kesejahteraan sosial antara lain. Ada pekerjaan interdisipliner yang cukup di lapangan. Kisaran topik yang dibahas sangat besar, dan rinci daftar pustaka diklasifikasikan gerontologi dan geriatri muncul secara teratur di The Journal of Gerontology, publikasi resmi dari Amerika Gerontological Society. * Artikel ini telah dipersiapkan dengan bantuan Negara Bidang Editor, Irwin Rinder.

160 sosiologis TRIWULAN Dalam sekarang makalah saya akan membatasi pembahasan saya publikasi di lapangan yang mungkin dianggap "sosiologis," mendefinisikan ini sebagai karya yang berhubungan dengan kendala struktural sosial dan orang-orang di tahun menengah dan kemudian. Studi sosiologis fokus berusia di salah satu dari delapan daerah. Ini adalah (1) keluarga; (2) teman-teman dan tetangga; (3) perumahan; (4) kerja, pensiun, dan rekreasi; (5) kendala ekonomi dan kesejahteraan; (6) kesehatan; (7) peran sosial dan kepuasan hidup; dan (8) studi banding. Jelas, perpecahan antara daerah klasifikasi tidak yang jelas. Sementara beberapa karya memiliki penekanan utama dalam satu wilayah, mereka juga mungkin memiliki penekanan ringan pada orang lain. Dalam ulasan ini saya pertama akan membahas secara singkat beberapa karya tengara yang signifikan pada usia dan penuaan yang muncul sebelum tahun 1965, dan kemudian meringkas dipilih publikasi yang lebih baru di lapangan. Landmark Pekerjaan Pada tahun 1957 Gerontological Masyarakat memulai proyek untuk mengumpulkan, mengatur, dan mempublikasikan pengetahuan ilmiah yang ada dalam aspek psikologis dan sosial penuaan untuk digunakan oleh guru di bidang penuaan. Dr. Wilma Donahue, sebuah inti psikolog di University of Michigan, menjabat sebagai ketua commiee mengorganisir pekerjaan raksasa ini. Tiga volume yang dihasilkan oleh proyek ini, Handbook of Aging dan Individual (Birren, 1959), Handbook of Gerontology Sosial (Tibbitts, 1960), dan Aging di Masyarakat Barat (Burgess, 1959), merupakan landmark di lapangan. Volume disunting oleh Clark Tibbitts sangat berguna untuk sosiolog mengandung seperti halnya kertas posisi di sebagian besar wilayah nificant yang sig- disebutkan sebelumnya. Menulis lebih dari sepuluh tahun yang lalu, banyak dari makalah ini menawarkan wawasan teoritis dan prediksi yang akan datang yang masih sangat relevan. Sebagai contoh, Streib dan Thompson (1960: 447-488) dalam laporan mendalam tentang penelitian mereka pada orang yang lebih tua dalam keluarga menunjukkan bahwa banyak ide-ide kita tentang usia datang dari pers populer dan mewakili orang atipikal. Tempat ini lebih benar daripada di bidang keluarga kapal hubungan. Streib dan penelitian Thompson berurusan dengan orang-orang tua dan anak-anak mereka dewasa. Mereka menekankan bahwa orang tua tidak duduk sendiri, diabaikan oleh anak-anak mereka. Sebaliknya, tampaknya ada banyak kontak antara orang tua dan anak-anak mereka, sementara pada saat yang sama orang tua dan anak-anak mereka mencari di- ketergantungan masing-masing dari yang lain. Tema ini kini telah menjadi salah satu yang akrab dalam literatur empiris pada keluarga. Tiga volume Handbook adalah kompendium lengkap. Sejumlah karya yang lebih spesifik lainnya dalam sosiologi penuaan yang telah membuat Iuran-kontribusi besar ke lapangan juga harus disebutkan di sini. Sementara ada tampaknya tidak ada publikasi sosiologis pra-1965 utama baik perumahan atau ekonomi dari studi banding usia, atau, ada karya berharga berurusan dengan keluarga, dengan pola persahabatan, dengan pekerjaan dan pensiun, kesehatan, dan dengan peran sosial. Aspek yang menarik dari semua studi ini adalah cara di mana fakta-fakta tentang usia ternyata benar-benar berbeda dari banyak keyakinan khas stereo- tentang mereka. Hal ini berlaku apakah penyidik ​​melaporkan pada keluarga, persahabatan, pekerjaan, kesehatan, atau peran sosial. Buku yang paling penting pada keluarga di usia tua yang diterbitkan sebelum 1965 tidak diragukan lagi Peter Townsend The Family Kehidupan Manusia Old (1957). Profesor

Penuaan dan Berumur 161 Townsend, maka anggota dari Institut Studi Masyarakat, London, membuat intensif Studi orang-orang tua yang tinggal di Bethnal Green, daerah kelas pekerja di dekat pusat kota London. Temuannya, seperti yang Streib dan Thompson, menunjukkan bahwa orang tua tidak terisolasi dari keluarga mereka, dan bahwa dalam kehidupan keluarga tua usia menjadi tidak kurang penting tetapi yang lebih penting. Lebih lanjut, ia menemukan bahwa hanya sebagian kecil orang tua bisa digambarkan sebagai terisolasi, dan dalam analisis brilian, ia membedakan antara isolasi, atau pengasingan dari orang lain; kesedihan, atau kehilangan sosial; dan kesepian, yang subjektif dan bukan negara tujuan menjadi. Ditulis dengan gaya yang jelas, ringkas, dan jelas, buku Townsend merupakan kontribusi luar biasa kepada sosiologi penuaan. Bahkan sebelum survei Townsend London, survei masyarakat Amerika yang berusia telah selesai di New York City (Kutner et al., 1956). Ini adalah studi Kips Bay-Yorkville, yang awalnya berusaha untuk menjawab tiga pertanyaan: (1) apa yang sosial dan faktor budaya memfasilitasi penyesuaian terhadap penuaan, (2) apa jenis orang berhasil menyesuaikan diri dengan penuaan, dan (3) apa bentuk harus diambil oleh program yang dirancang untuk memenuhi kebutuhan orang tua. Sementara volume memberikan jawaban atas semua pertanyaan ini, bagian dari laporan penelitian ini yang telah memiliki dampak terbesar di bidang penawaran dengan hubungan antara moral usia dan kontak sosial mereka dengan keluarga, teman, dan tetangga. Kutner dan rekan-rekannya mengembangkan indeks moral di usia. Mereka menemukan bahwa di antara kelompok-kelompok status yang rendah sering mengunjungi dengan keluarga dan teman-teman telah tidak ada hubungannya dengan moral karena mereka diukur; antara kelompok-kelompok status yang tinggi moral rendah disertai sering mengunjungi dengan anak-anak dan kerabat. Ini tidak benar kontak sering dengan teman-teman. Temuan tak terduga ini cocok dengan temuan lain yang melanggar "akal sehat ing berpikir-." Seperti Townsend, Kutner menemukan bahwa ada beberapa orang yang tidak menanggapi negatif terhadap isolasi sosial (Kutner et al, 1956:. 118). Perlu dicatat bahwa penulis Lima Ratus Enam puluh Lebih (Kutner et al., 1956), yang diterbitkan hampir skor tahun lalu, menekankan kebutuhan untuk berhubungan penelitian sosial untuk aksi sosial. Ini telah menjadi tema umum dalam literatur pada
