Several months after he randomly assigned nursing home residents to control or a lack of control over visitation schedules,
Schulz (Schulz & Hanusa, 1978) was dismayed to find that those residents who had originally controlled the duration and frequency of visits from college students later experienced poorer health and higher mortality rates. These findings seem directly at odds with research by Rodin and Langer (1977), until one considers that
a. Schulz induced only a temporary sense of control.
b. Langer and Rodin studied women and Schulz studied men.
c. a lack of perceived control is worse than losing it.
d. people sometimes blame themselves for health problems.
Question 2
Recall that Schulz (1976) randomly assigned nursing home residents to one of two conditions designed to manipulate perceived control over visitation schedules. He found that two months later, residents who
a. were visited more were happier, more active, and lived longer.
b. did not receive visitors were less happy, less active, and took more medications.
c. had a say in visit scheduling were happier, more active, and required fewer medications.
d. had health problems benefited more from the visits.
