Sociodemographic Correlates of Social Network Age Integration Status in Late Life
JOURNAL OF INTERGENERATIONAL RELATIONSHIPS(2023)
摘要
Increased longevity allows older adults to have younger close social ties, suggesting age integration. However, prior research excludes same-aged peers from age integration definitions. Using the National Health and Aging Trends Study, we characterize 3,642 participants' social networks as peer-only (54%), intergenerational-only (21%), or age-integrated (25%) for those with both peer and intergenerational connections. Findings suggest complexity in older adults' social network age distributions. Relative to peer-only networks, intergenerational-only networks were more likely among Hispanic, other-raced, non-partnered and more educated individuals and less likely among individuals with ADL assistance; age-integrated networks were more likely with age and among women.
