Perhaps there is a greater opportunity for more political and social involvement recently on the part of the younger male. In the case of older men, perhaps they are relied upon by society to a lesser extent and, due to changes in retirement laws, for instance, disengage at an earlier age. (p. 491) This study is an example of the use of historical perspective in a variety of ways. First, the study was designed using the assumption that one cannot generalize findings about change over the adult ...life span using only cross-sectional data. Second, by comparing responses of groups across time, the study examines the stability of attitudes toward social responsibility. Finally, historical perspective was used to interpret the findings. The discovery that attitudes of similar age groups appear to change over time was explained by discussing the differential impact of social and historical conditions on each birth cohort. What is still missing in these studies is an understanding that the time units selected for study are relevant to the findings.
