Reframing Dependence in Old Age: A Positive Transition for Families.
Motenko, Aluma Kopito; Greenberg, Sarah
Social Work, v40 n3 p382-90 May 1995
Reevaluates the role of dependence in late-life development using concepts drawn from psychology, sociology, social work, gerontology, and scholarship on women's development. Presents old age as a time of continued positive growth and change. Argues against prevailing notions that successful aging features independence and health until death. (RJM)
