Aging and Religious Participation in Late Life
Effects of the TCARE(R) Intervention on Caregiver Burden and Depressive Symptoms
The preliminary findings provide strong support for effectiveness of the TCARE® protocol on improving caregiver well-being and mental health outcomes
Longitudinal Analysis of the Reciprocal Effects of Self-Assessed Global Health and Depressive Symptoms
This study examined whether a reciprocal relationship exists between measures of self-assessed global health and depressive symptoms, net of covariates that included chronic illness, functional disability, education, income, gender, race, and age. Analyses of five waves of data from the Rand version of the Health and Retirement Survey (N=7,475), using an autoregressive, cross-lagged panel design, indicated that self-assessed overall health had a …
Eddies in the Stream
Uncertainty is an authentic, meaningful stance toward retirement that theory and research design should not ignore. Just as actual transitions to retirement can be ambiguous or blurred, the expectation of retirement, as well, can be untidy
The Role of Job-Related Rewards in Retirement Planning
The authors used data from the first wave of the Health and Retirement Study ( F. Juster and R. Suzman 1995) to evaluate whether certain job-related gratifications might reduce retirement planning. Three definitions of retirement planning were evaluated and then regressed separately on a set of variables that included 3 types of job-related satisfactions (intrinsic gratification, positive social relations, and ascendance in the workplace) and 7 c…
The Impact of Acculturation on Attitudinal Familism in a Community of Puerto Rican Americans
The goal of this study was to examine the relationship between acculturation and familism in a samnple of 182 Hispanics of Puerto Rican descent. Exploratory factor analysis was used to establish the multidimensionality of each construct. Consistent with earlier studies, three dimensions of acculturation and familism were identified. Each dimension offamilism was then regressed on a set of explanatory variables that included three dimensions of ac…
Profiling Plans for Retirement
Actual decision making for retirement is largely inaccessible to investigation, yet research can focus on plans as a window into the preretirement process. This article proposes a construct that profiles five generic types of retirement plans, including plans to retire completely, change jobs, never retire, and uncertainty about retirement. The heuristic value of the construct lies in its recognition of the heterogeneity of retirement intentions.…

Investigating Patterns of Service Use by Families Providing Care for Dependent Elders
The behavioral model developed by Andersen in 1968 was used to investigate patterns of support service use by families caring for dependent elders. It was hypothesized that differences in background or predisposing factors that serve to define caregivers (e.g., spouse vs. adult-child) would interact with need factors to influence the use of "discretionary" support services (e.g., adult day care), but not influence the use of nondiscretionaryy" se…
Determinants of VA Utilization
By the end of the decade, fully one half of American males aged 65 years and over will be veterans. In anticipation of the increased demand for medical services, the Veterans Administration recently commissioned a survey of the needs of aging veterans. From a national probability sample, approximately 34,500 households were screened to yield interviews with 3,013 veterans aged 55 years and over. Using multivariate regression analyses, the present…
Retirement as a Process of Active Role Transition
Relationships between descriptive client characteristics and absenteeism from a mental health center
This study was an archival study attempting to determine whether certain descriptive client characteristics are related to high levels of client absenteeism or client attrition. Subjects were 354 former outpatient clients from a community mental health center. Descriptive characteristics such as age income, and treatment latency were taken from information routinely collected for all clients. Correlations revealed no significant relationships bet…
The problem of early outpatient terminations from community mental health centers
This study examined the relationship between the number of client contacts with a mental health center and the client's evaluation of the services. Responses to 3 structured ratings of the center's services and free response comments were obtained from 130 former outpatients. None of the structured evaluation ratings was related to the number of contacts, but clients with several contacts were more negative in their free response comments. In add…
