Thesis (Ph.D.)--Brown University, 1998.

Geographlc proximity between elderly parents and their children plays an important role in connecting resources and concerns of each generation. My dissertation examine multi-level factors for the distinctive pattern of generational proximity in Japan during the late 1980s and the US during the early 1990s. I focus on differences and similarities in the effects of (1) life course conditions of elderly parents and their children, (2) economic and ecological utilities located in elderly parents' places of residence, and (3) cultural distinctiveness in prescribing generational support between US individualism and Japan's familism on generational proximities in the two societies.

520 $a Geographlc proximity between elderly parents and their children plays an important role in connecting resources and concerns of each generation. My dissertation examine multi-level factors for the distinctive pattern of generational proximity in Japan during the late 1980s and the US during the early 1990s. I focus on differences and similarities in the effects of (1) life course conditions of elderly parents and their children, (2) economic and ecological utilities located in elderly parents' places of residence, and (3) cultural distinctiveness in prescribing generational support between US individualism and Japan's familism on generational proximities in the two societies.
520 $a To employ this multi-level analysis, I use the 1993 Asset and Health Dynamics among the Oldest Old (AHEAD) in the US and the 1989 Second Demographic Survey on Changes in Family Life Course and Household Structures (DSFH) in Japan, and construct data sets of paired parent-child observations. Then, I merge economic and ecological indices of US states and Japan's prefectures with these parent-child data sets. To take into account large numbers of missing observations in DSFH, I employ EM and selection models. I also account for family-level clustered observations and explore intra-family differences in generational proximities by modelling relations between proximities to nearest and non-nearest children.
520 $a The results show that children's conditions play primary roles in determining geographic proximities between elderly parents and their children in both the societies. There is evidence for both cultural and economic importance in shaping generational proximities, and this finding encourages further inquiry into the class and normative basis of family ties. This study reveals the need for further research into the relationship between different levels of proximities to the extent that they supplement each other in promoting generational support and are temporarily linked to each other in response to changes in life course conditions. I hope that my work will encourage studies on family networks, which will help to define the distinctiveness and relation of each member's family role and felt-obligation.
