根据1984-1990年老龄化纵向调查（LSOA）的数据，本文分析了70岁或70岁以上受试者搬家的原因和决定因素。60%以上的搬家者将自己的健康状况不佳、配偶的健康状况不佳/死亡和/或对亲密亲属关系的渴望作为搬家的原因，25%以上的人将金钱问题作为搬家的原因。与白人和男性相比，黑人和女性更有可能提到对亲密亲属关系的渴望。615名搬家者和3,445名不搬家者的比较还表明，晚年搬家对健康状况的恶化有很小但很大的影响。建议为儿童和其他亲属提供社会服务和经济援助，帮助他们减轻老年人的压力，缓解老年人搬家的过渡。
On the basis of data from the Longitudinal Survey of Aging (LSOA), 1984-1990, this article analyzes reasons for, and determinants of; moving among subjects 70 years or older More than 60% of the mover sample gave their own poor health, their spouse's poor health/death, and/or their desire for close kinship as reasons they moved, and more than 25% cited money problems as a reason. Blacks and women were more likely to cite desire for close kinship than were Whites and men The comparison between 615 movers and 3,445 nonmovers also showed that moving late in life contributes to the deterioration of health to a small but significant degree. Social services and financial assistance for children and other relatives who rake in ailing elderly relatives are recommended Social services and programs to help alleviate the stress and ease the transition of moving for older persons are also discussed.
