社会关系的护送模型的发展提供了一个启发式的框架，概念化和理解社会关系。在这篇原创之声的文章中，我们开始概述了护送模型的理论原则，包括它在解决情境和背景影响方面的价值，特别是在整个生命周期中，特别是在老年时期，家庭形式和文化多样性的变化。我们还考虑车队模型的贡献，家庭老年学领域的概念，方法和措施，用于测试模型，以及它的有用性和局限性，在解决当代老年人面临的问题。最后，我们讨论的机会，创新和应用的护送模式研究晚年的家庭关系。总之，我们强调护送模式的好处和包容性，以指导当前和未来的研究，以解决家庭老年学现在和未来面临的挑战。
The convoy model of social relations was developed to provide a heuristic framework for conceptualizing and understanding social relationships. In this Original Voices article, we begin with an overview of the theoretical tenets of the convoy model, including its value in addressing situational and contextual influences, especially variability in family forms and cultural diversity across the life span, but particularly in older adulthood. We also consider the contributions of the convoy model to the field of family gerontology by illustrating concepts, methods, and measures used to test the model, as well as its usefulness and limitations in addressing contemporary issues facing older adults. Finally, we discuss opportunities for innovation and application of the convoy model to the study of later-life family relationships. In summary, we emphasize the benefits and inclusiveness of the convoy model for guiding current and future research to address challenges facing family gerontology now and in the future.
