Findings from the third hypothesis revealed that the Kolmogorov-Smirnov value of 7.44, which was significant at the .05 level, did not support the research hypothesis but rather indicated that the aged widowed appear to inter- act with friends more than aged married individuals. This finding supports Townsend's (1957) earlier research on the aged but is inconsistent with results from investigations by Berardo (1967) and Booth (1972). The finding from this research as well as Townsend's study ca...n perhaps be inter- preted in the following way. The widowed, conditioned to but deprived of interaction with a spouse, are forced to look outside the nuclear family for the satisfaction of their social needs while married individuals have less inclination to do so. Friend interaction appears to be a viable outlet for meeting these needs. Moreover, assuming the applicability of the exchange framework to this social setting, friend interaction is actively sought out and maintained by those with sufficient resources to make the relationship rewarding to both.
