Abstract

Nearly 5,000 older adults provided data for this study, which used factor analysis to identify the following four dimensions of agency awareness: in-home services, aging network services, financial services, and other services. Then, 18 variables assessing the various dimensions of the behavioral model were included in multiple regression equations predicting each of the awareness dimensions. The regression equations only accounted for 7% to 13% of the variance of the various service awareness dimensions.
