Time dynamics of elder victimization: Evidence from the NCVS, 1992 to 2005
Substance Misuse, Suicidal Ideation, and Suicide Attempts Among a National Sample of Homeless
This study's purpose was to identify the relationship between the annual incidence of drug and alcohol misuse among a national probability sample of 2,974 homeless individuals and self-reports of suicidal ideation and attempts while considering the predictors of both drug and alcohol misuse and suicidal ideation and attempts. By using a national dataset, the National Survey of Homeless Assistance Providers and Clients (NSHAPC), and testing a seri…
Elder criminal victimization: Its relative rate compared to non-elders, 1992–2005
The literature is replete with the finding that persons who are relatively younger have a comparably higher incidence of crime victimization than those who are older. Comparable systematic studies of the crime rates among those who are 65 and older with those who are younger across time are virtually nonexistent. The present study provides these analyses. Data from the National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS) by month and year were used to stud…

Family and Formal Assistance with Activity Limitations: Who Helps the Mexican American Elderly
Using a large, national dataset, this project focuses on the activity limitations of the Mexican American elderly and their receipt of assistance. The study demonstrates that 65% of the respondents reported at least one activity limitation and that the majority of those did not receive any assistance with the limitation from family. Results show that whereas some Mexican American elders do receive assistance from the family and some receive assis…
Patterns of Intergenerational Assistance Within the Mexican American Family: Is the Family Taking Care of the Older Generation's Needs
A continuing debate exists in the family literature about the needs of the Mexican American elderly, a rapidly growing population. Supporters of one side of the argument indicate that the Mexican American family is available to care for the needs of the aging Mexican American population whereas the other argues that this is simply a romanticized and stereotypical view. Using a large national data set, this article demonstrates, that the Mexican A…
