这项研究涉及150名85岁及以上的人，重点关注他们的家庭和社交网络。使用结构化和开放式的问题，我们探讨了在何种程度上家庭功能作为支持的来源，最古老的老人。研究结果表明，那些有孩子的人与所有亲戚的关系都更加活跃，这很可能是因为孩子们通过婚姻将他们与孙子，曾孙和他们的亲戚联系起来。对于30%没有子女和未婚的人来说，其他亲属通常不是积极的支助提供者，这一发现表明，替代原则对这一年龄组并不有效。个案研究说明了家庭在支持其最年长成员方面的各种功能
This study of 150 individuals, 85 years and older, focused on their families and social networks. Using both structured and open-ended questions, we explored the extent to which the family functions as a source of support for the oldest old. The findings indicate that those with children are significantly more active with all relatives, most likely because children link them to grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and their relatives by marriage. For the 30 percent who are childless and unmarried, other relatives are not usually active providers of support, a finding which suggests that the principle of substitution does not operate effectively for this age group. Case studies illustrate the variations in family functioning in the support of their oldest members
