2，810个老年家庭的数据来自劳工统计局1990年消费者支出调查。多变量Tobit分析被用来检查家庭之间的参考人年龄在65-74岁（10岁）和家庭的参考人年龄在75岁及以上（老）的消费模式的差异。在家里的食物，远离家的食物，酒精和烟草，住房，服装和服装服务，交通，医疗保健，娱乐，个人护理和个人保险的支出方面存在显着差异。社会人口因素对各年龄组支出的影响并不一致。
Data on 2,810 elderly households were drawn from the Bureau of Labor Statistics 1990 Consumer Expenditure Survey. Multivariate Tobit analysis was used to examine spending pattern differences between households with a reference person aged 65-74 (young-old) and households with a reference person aged 75 and older (old old). Significant differences in spending were found for expenditures on food at home, food away from home, alcohol and tobacco, housing, apparel and apparel services, transportation, healthcare, entertainment, personal care, and personal insurance. The impact of sociodemographic factors on expenditures by either age group was not uniform.
