Ethnic and generational variation in elder mistreatment has only recently been explored. This research builds upon pioneer work in the field by examining perceptions of elder mistreatment across four ethnic groups (European-American, African-American, Puerto Rican, and Japanese-American) and two generations (elder and 'baby boom' caregiver). Focus group discussions revealed differences in defining elder mistreatment and responding to it. They also suggested that psychological abuse and neglect may be more important mistreatment forms than previously acknowledged. Policy and practice implications of study results are considered. jg]Key words gw]Elder mistreatment gw]Elder abuse gw]Ethnic groups gw]Generations.
