As cheaply as one: cohabitation in the older population

Article Abstract:

A study reveals that the rising trend of cohabitation among the elderly people is due to economic factors, the social context of the cohabitors, and the individual characteristics of the cohabiting couple. Although the incidence of cohabitation among the elderly unmarried is low, severe poverty and dearth of elderly males explain the current upward spiral. Trends indicate that the number of elderly cohabitors increased to 407,000 in 1990 from a low of 9,600 in 1960. An indirect approach to measure the prevalence of cohabitation, using data from the 1990 census, is discussed.

Late-night comedy and the salience of the candidates' caricatured traits in the 2000 election

Article Abstract:

The effects of exposure to late-night comedy shows on the salience of candidate traits prominent in the monologues of late-night comedians in the 2000 presidential campaign were examined to assess the moderating effects of political knowledge. The results suggest that viewing late-night comedy was not directly associated with the salience of the candidates' most caricatured traits, but among less politically knowledgeable individuals, the salience of certain caricatured traits did increase at higher levels of late-night comedy exposure.
