Social support system of the elderly living alone was observed in this research project. The survey was conducted in Kawachi-Nagano City, Osaka Prefecture, in 1992. The subjects were 1,223 elderly living alone registered in the residents registration system of the city. Among the subjects listed, 485 were excluded because of co-residence with others, residential movement, or death. Among the remaining 738 subjects, home-visit interviews were completed for 627 subjects. The response rate was 85.0%.Although the elderly living alone are imaged as socially isolated and psychologically alone, the results of this research showed such images are wrong. About 70% of the subjects had adults children, and maintained frequent contacts with their children living apart, siblings and relatives, and neighbors. Based on these contacts, the subjects had available sources of informal social support.

在该研究项目中观察到了单独生活的老年人的社会支持系统。该调查于1992年在大阪县的川谷市进行。受试者是1,223名居住在该市居民注册系统中的老年人。在列出的主题中，由于与他人共同居住，住宅运动或死亡，被排除在外。在其余的738名受试者中，进行了627名受试者的家庭访问访谈。回应率为85.0％。尽管单独生活的老年人是社会孤立的，并且在心理上是单独的，但这项研究的结果表明，这种图像是错误的。大约70％的受试者有成年子女，并与他们分开生活，兄弟姐妹和亲戚以及邻居保持频繁接触。基于这些联系，受试者具有非正式社会支持的可用来源。
