Family Living Arrangement and Social Adjustment among Three Ethnic Groups of Elderly Indochinese Refugees.
Tran, Thanh V.
International Journal of Aging and Human Development, v32 n2 p91-102 1991
Examined family living arrangement and social adjustment among 258 elderly Indochinese refugees. Found that elderly refugees who lived within nuclear or extended family had better sense of social adjustment than those living outside family context. Those living in overcrowded households and in households with children experienced poorer sense of adjustment. Ethnicity had no significant relationship with social adjustment. (Author/NB)
