What Draws Late-Life Repartners to Each Other and Keeps Them Together? An Intergenerational Stepfamily Perspective
Partner selection is intriguing at any life stage including later in life. Late life repartnering is a phenomenon emerging with the increase in life expectancy. Motivations include friendship, intimacy, loneliness, and having fun. Understanding partner selection and maintenance among those who repartner late in life is yet to be explored and could assist older adults with finding a suitable partner and help their offspring understand it. Our aim …
Applying the convoy model to support in care situations
This article considers the future of informal care situations, with a special focus on how social networks can support caring. Noting demographic changes and the endemic need for informal support, we outline the convoy model of social relations for proactive planning and contemporaneous caring. The article is grounded in empirical evidence, including comparative findings from four countries and about caring among two uniquely vulnerable populatio…
So Close and Yet So Irritating: Negative Relations and Implications for Well-being by Age and Closeness
Results were partially consistent with the strength and vulnerability integration (SAVI) model, which proposes fewer age-related improvements in emotion regulation when individuals are unable to avoid tensions. Despite feeling just as negative as younger individuals, older individuals may be more resilient to tensions in their closest relationships
Dementia Caregiving in the Context of Late-Life Remarriage: Support Networks, Relationship Quality, and Well-being
Caregiving research has not accounted for increasingly diverse and complex marital and family histories of older Americans. The authors examined social relations and care-specific positive and negative support networks among late-life remarried wife dementia caregivers (N = 61) to determine associations among network structure, relationship quality with and support received from network members, and global assessments of family and stepfamily dis…
Stability and change in the intergenerational family: A convoy approach
There have been fundamental changes in the intergenerational family, and yet families continue to be an important part of people's lives. We use the convoy model to describe the factors that influence supportive relations within intergenerational families, beginning with a description of the changing structure of the intergenerational family. We next outline support exchanges, detailing how personal characteristics, especially gender, race, age a…
