AnnotationThis study examines the pattern of social support exchange between elders and their family members, focusing on financial aid and household care (both instrumental and emotional). The second objective was to identify resource capacity factors (including education, physical health and size of social network) that generate differences in this exchange of financial aid and household care. Respondents were 213 people who had family members living in Hong Kong aged 70 years or more from a longitudinal study of a representative community sample. (KJ/RH).
