Attitudes toward Living Arrangements among Older Adults in China
BACKGROUND: Extended family households are traditional living arrangements in China.However, studies show that the number of older adults who live alone or with only a spouse is increasing.On one hand, due to a lack of national social security system,the decline in extended family household raises concerns about oldage support.On the other hand, this trend may reflect changing filial norms and growing acceptance of independent living arrangement in the context of rapid population aging, one-child policy, and westernization.The study investigates the predictors of whether the elders believe the best living arrangement for the elderly is alone or with spouse, living with adult children, or living in an elder care facility.
