Older Women Discuss Planning for Future Care Needs: An Explanatory Framework
Although the majority undertook active steps to prepare for future care needs, many missed key steps or achievement of planning goals recommended by experts. Findings may be applied to long-term care planning research by providing added, rich detail on how aging women construct their options, make choices, and address this important area for future well-being
Gender and Informal Caregiving in CCRCs: Primary Caregivers or Support Networks
Relatively little research has been conducted on caregiving or kin support patterns among residents of newer forms of senior housing. The current research investigates variation in reported current or potential supporters by gender, age, and marital status among 687 residents of four continuing care retirement communities. Women and men tended to identify different configurations of social support, with the gender difference partially attributabl…

Economic Well-Being Following Marital Termination: A Comparison of Widowed and Divorced Women
Separate studies of divorced and widowed women show increased odds of becoming poor following the termination of marriage. Both cross-sectional and longitudinal data suggest that the end of marriage is correlated with higher poverty rates. Less is known, however, about factors that influence economic well-being over time, and whether these factors are similar for widows and divorced women. This analysis uses data from the National Longitudinal Su…

Changes in Family Interaction following Widowhood
Interaction with kin is thought to be criticalfor aging men and women who have lost their spouses, but longitudinal research on family reactions to this loss is scarce. Using data from the Longitudinal Retirement History Study, this research finds that average frequency of interaction with available kin increases for both married and widowed persons over time, with the greatest increase among women who become widowed. The total number of contacts…
Economic Change at Mid-Life Widowhood: A Longitudinal Analysis
Widowhood has been found to have a negative association with the financial well-being of women in cross-sectional studies. In this study cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses are compared in a national sample of women widowed in mid-life. Results of the cross-sectional analysis replicate previous findings, but longitudinal comparisons fail to demonstrate a significant decline in income or financial well-being upon the death of spouses. The da…
