- Abstract
This paper examines socializing as a component in the social integration of the elderly in Slovenia. Two studies, dated 1987 and 2002, were compared using statistical analysis, to reveal the characteristics of companions in both years. In 1987, participation in leisure activities decreased with age. The most frequent obstacles responsible for the decreased participation of the elderly in leisure activities were poor health and illness. Data from 2002 shows that socializing with friends decreases with age; however socializing with children and neighbours increases with age.
