The purpose of this study was to examine the social environments of adult homes in the community to determine if different types of adult homes existed and which environmental variables best described each home type. Three hundred and two adult home staff rated 10 social environment variables of 49 adult homes using Moos' Community Oriented Programs Environment Scale. Using cluster analysis, 4 distinct environmental home types were identified. Discriminant analysis suggested that homes in each cluster differed primarily in their degree of staff involvement, staff support and expression of anger.
