To Worry About Financially." Which Of The Following Responses Is Most Appropriate?
A) "You Have To Remember That There's A Huge Economic Disparity Among Older
Adults."
B) "Actually, The Number Of Older People Living Below The Poverty Line Has Been
Increasing, Not Decreasing."

Groups Live With Are Expected To Shrink."
D) "This Is True For Some Groups, But Not For Minorities Who Are Less Likely To Be
Living With Their Relatives."

Feedback:
An Important Consideration With Regard To Economic Conditions Of Older Adults Is
The Tremendous Range In Financial Status, Which Varies Significantly According To
Race, Gender, And Living Arrangements. The Number Of Adults Living Below The
Poverty Line, However, Has Decreased In Recent Years. The Disparities That Separate
Disadvantaged Groups From More Economically Secure Older Adults Are Predicted To
Persist. Minorities Are More Likely, Not Less Likely, To Be Living With Their
Relatives.
