Empirical studies of political opinion and behavior about national issues affecting the aging have not revealed the intergenerational conflicts often predicted in recent decades. Using public opinion studies of attitudes about the aging at the community level in Florida, this study does identify significant cleavages in attitude and belief between generations, suggesting intergenerational political conflict may be likely in the future. The research implies the most important source of this conflict may be the community level and the "image" of the aging that is developing among younger community residents.
关于影响老年人的国家问题的政治观点和行为的实证研究并未揭示近几十年来经常预测的代际冲突。本研究利用佛罗里达州社区层面关于老年人态度的民意调查，确实发现了代际之间在态度和信念上的显著分歧，这表明未来可能会出现代际政治冲突。该研究表明，这种冲突最重要的根源可能在于社区层面以及年轻社区居民中正在形成的老年人“形象”。
