摘要
Why do older adults participate in certain lifelong learning programs and not in others? What reasons and variables influence participation? What are the barriers to educational involvement? In this article, authors Lisa Ostiguy, Robert Hopp and Richard MacNeil attempt to answer these questions as they examine studies on lifelong learning from around the world. © 1998.
