在德克萨斯州圣安东尼奥的三个不同的社会经济社区，随机抽取了墨西哥裔美国人(MA)和非西班牙裔白人(NHW)年轻居民(58-74岁)，考察了他们在感知照顾者可用性方面的差异。对于所有三个社会经济地位(SES)群体的MA来说，女性、寡妇和患有更多慢性病与感知到照顾者可获得性的可能性较小相关。SES和儿童数量与感知的照顾者可用性无关。在中等和较高SES的MA和NHW中，男性、已婚和较高SES的MA和NHW与感知到照顾者可用性的可能性更大。儿童数量改变了社会经济地位和种族群体与感知到的照顾者可用性之间的关联。
Differences in perceived caregiver availability were examined among a random sample of Mexican American (MA) and non-Hispanic white (NHW) young-old residents (58–74 years old) in three socioeconomically distinct neighborhoods in San Antonio, Texas. For MAs across all three socioeconomic status (SES) groups, being female, widowed, and having more chronic illnesses were associated with a lesser likelihood of perceived caregiver availability. SES and number of children were not associated with perceived caregiver availability. Among MAs and NHWs of middle- and upper-SES, being male, married, and of upper-SES were associated with a greater likelihood of perceived caregiver availability. The number of children modified the associations of both SES and ethnic group with perceived caregiver availability.
