This study examined the relationship between home builders' attitudes/knowledge of aging and their awareness/use of accessible products and features in residential design. Eighty-nine Oklahoma home builders completed a comprehensive survey that included demographics, building practices, and Palmore's FAQII. The mean score for knowledge of aging was 12.5 out of 25. The net-bias mean score for attitude showed a tendency for the sample to thing negatively about the elderly. A conceptual model to predict use and knowledge was developed and tested using multiple regressions analysis. Results indicated that home builders were aware of a higher percentage of accessible features than they actually used. The majority of builders reported that accessible features in a residence was a viable idea but their use dependent on client awareness and request. |
