The results were as follows: High school students' recognition of the senior citizens' roles was analyzed using factor analysis. Four factors were extracted including "Life perspective role," "Emotional help role," "Discipline and socialization role," and "Cultural legend role". There was a significant difference between students who studied senior citizens' roles and those who did not. The study experience in which the students had direct contacts with senior citizens showed the highest scores of directly get in touch. Factors that increased the score concerning students' recognition of senior citizens' roles were "Exchange experience between Senior citizens in community and students," "Exchange experience between senior citizens in nursing home and students" and "Interviewing senior citizens."
