“…The activities reported by these participants were highly similar to those previously reported in studies examining engagement patterns in adulthood, with television watching, reading, socializing, and essential daily activities (e.g., preparing food) among those activities most frequently endorsed (e.g., Arbuckle, Gold, Chaikelson, & Lapidus, 1994; Dotson, Schinka, Brown, Mortimer, & Borenstein, 2008; Parisi, 2010; Salthouse, Berish, & Miles, 2002). A few differences were noted; specifically, individuals in the present study reported high levels of religious involvement, replicating other findings suggesting that African-Americans center many of their activities around religious involvement (e.g., Krause, 2006; Taylor, Chatters, McKeever Bullard, Wallace, & Jackson, 2009).…”
