Abstrakt: A conceptual 4-cell model is presented for use in planning a community service delivery system for and by an aged population. This model is based on the concept of meaningful involvement which consists of components of social power and decision-making and which cuts across age-segregated and age-integrated needs and services. The illustrative utilization of the model suggests that long-range service delivery goals may be attained while continuing to enhance the aged person's needs as an involved, responsible citizen. It is recommended that the levels of social power and decision-making applicable to each cell of the model be empirically studied. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
