Migration increases the distance between parents and their children, which may lead to a reduction in sources of support. Based on these contemporary realities, it is important to understand the factors that impact provision of support from migrants to their parents. This study examines determinants of support provision, with a focus on migrant location. Based on family solidarity and altruism theories, other factors were considered that indicate migrant's ability to provide, the degree of parental vulnerability and degree of interaction. We hypothesized that the likelihood of migrant support provision to left-behind parents related to their location, ability to provide and needs of the household. Data were sourced from the 2011 Cambodian Rural Urban Migration Project (CRUMP) (N = 3700). In bivariate analysis, 77% of both international and rural to urban internal migrants provide monetary support. Rural to urban internal migrants are most likely, and international migrants least likely, to be providing instrumental support. When examining fully adjusted models, it is rural to urban internal migrants that are the most likely to provide both monetary and instrumental support. Both types of support are more likely to be provided by female migrants and to households headed by females. Results show that left-behind parents are not completely unsupported in rural Cambodia, but support provision may be impacted by other determinants. This study provides baseline information for policy makers to design suitable policies that may optimize the positive impact of migration for migrants and left-behind parents.","PeriodicalId":46921,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cross-Cultural Gerontology","volume":"37 1","pages":"23-43"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39823984","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A purposive sample of 23 older adults provided data through semi-structured face-to-face interviews and data analysis employed a general inductive approach, with a focus on content and thematic analytic procedures. The findings show an overall theme of 'the good old days', how participants compare themselves negatively to older adults in their past, believing and feeling that older adults in the past enjoyed better health and longevity and had more care and respect. While participants generally praise the past for its perceived virtue and vitality, they scold the present for a perceived degeneration. Findings of this study support theoretical descriptions and empirical research conclusions on nostalgia as: an emotionally invested remembrance of the past; a yearning to relive the past or reconnect with people and things past, or to return to places in the past; and an evocation of the beauty of the past in contrast to the ugliness of the present. Consonant with this, the study shows how participants evoke the beauty of the past, where, comparatively, older adults enjoyed a life of dignity. In what is characteristic of nostalgic evocations, participants reclaim the lost beautiful past, where people ate natural - healthy - foods, engaged in physically active work, and were stronger into late adulthood. Again, consonant with nostalgia as a discourse of critique of the present with the past as yardstick, participants express disenchantment with the present for a perceived steady degradation of the values of care, respect, and obedience to elders, which made older adults in past generations a privileged class. To this end, we may conclude that nostalgia not only speaks to the present from the past, it seeks to recreate the past in the future.","PeriodicalId":46921,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cross-Cultural Gerontology","volume":"37 1","pages":"89-114"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39777755","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Consequently, scant attention has been given to the caregiving experiences of direct care workers (DCWs) in Chinese nursing homes. In particular, given the relational nature of care work, there is little knowledge as to how Chinese DCWs manage emotions and inner feelings through their emotional labor. This article examines the emotional labor of Chinese DCWs through ethnographic data collected with 20 DCWs in one nursing home located in an urban setting in central China. Data were analyzed using conventional content analysis and constant comparison. Participants' accounts of sustaining a caring self, preserving professional identity, and hoping for reciprocity revealed implicit meanings about the often-conflicting nature of emotional labor and the nonreciprocal elements of care work under constrained working conditions. Importantly, the moral-cultural notion of bao ( norm of reciprocity) was found to be central among DCWs in navigating strained resources and suggested their agency in meaning-construction. However, their constructed moral buffers may be insufficient if emotional labor continues to be made invisible by care organizations.","PeriodicalId":46921,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cross-Cultural Gerontology","volume":"37 1","pages":"1-22"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8855144/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39934879","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Combined with improved life expectancy, older parents are now confronted with new opportunities and challenges including their access to leisure activities. However, a paucity of research exists with regard to the extent to which older-aged parents are satisfied with their amount of leisure time as well as their ideal leisure preferences. Drawing upon socio-cultural life course theory, this paper examines how socio-demographic and ethnocultural variables (i.e., gender, ethnic identity), family-related factors (e.g., presence of children in the household), and socio-economic and work contexts (i.e., income satisfaction and retirement status) shape leisure time satisfaction and activity preferences. Data are drawn from the \"Families and Retirement Project,\" a sample of 588 diverse (British-, Chinese-, Iranian/Persian-, South-Asian Canadians) aged 50 + (mean age = 59.6) residing in Metro Vancouver with at least one young adult child aged 19-35. Quantitative analyses reveal that leisure time satisfaction is higher among: those reporting lower levels of parental stress, the fully retired, those with less education, and among Chinese parents (compared to British). Moreover, strong variations by ethnic background are shown in preferred leisure activity, based on a thematic analysis of data. Results are discussed in terms of contributions to a socio-cultural family life course activity theory. Implications for community service provision (e.g., culturally sensitive and relevant recreational programs and services) are also highlighted, given the salience of participation in enjoyable leisure activities to healthy aging.","PeriodicalId":46921,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cross-Cultural Gerontology","volume":"36 4","pages":"387-406"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39441104","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
