| Annotation | A cultural transition that is positive about three-generation families, and that places greater value on family ties results in close-knit social networks that support the health of older people. This article reports on an international study conducted in 1990 in Germany, Japan, the Republic of Korea, the United Kingdom (UK), and the United States (US), the aim of which was to elucidate differences in the way older people live in different countries.
