Social isolation in Asian Americans: Risks associated with socio-demographic, health, and immigration factors
The study findings expand our understanding of the multiple domains of social isolation in an understudied population and emphasize the importance of developing prevention and intervention programs to foster social connectedness among Asian Americans. Our findings on risk factors and ethnic variations help identify the groups to be prioritized in intervention efforts and suggest ways to approach them
Intention to Screen for Alzheimer’s Disease by Residential Locale
A random digit dialing sample from Missouri (USA) was used to compare associations between psychosocial factors and Alzheimer's disease (AD) screening intention based on residential locale.

The residential location choice of the elderly in Korea: A multilevel logit model
The present study explores a residential movement of elderly households, which is postulated based on the probabilistic choice theory. This study intends to develop a residential location choice model integrating micro- and macro-approaches by adding regional factors to the probabilistic choice model in terms of the individual level. With the movement to rural areas being given more focus, the estimated results will have implications on local gov…
