摘要

本研究调查了欧洲国家祖父母照料的总体强度和变化对祖父母孤独感的影响。研究使用了欧洲健康、老龄和退休调查（SHARE）第 5 至第 8 波的数据（Nindividuals = 30,896 和 Nobservations = 48,562）。我们将研究开始时至少有一名孙辈的祖父母（50 岁及以上）纳入研究范围。分析表明，祖父母的任何照料强度都会降低孤独的风险。在研究祖父母照料方式的变化时，结果显示稳定的照料角色似乎会减少孤独感，而开始提供祖父母照料则会使祖父母更容易感到孤独。总之，我们的研究结果表明，持续的祖父母照料对于祖父母减轻孤独感非常重要，同时也强调了持续的照料角色比照料强度波动更重要。

Intensity and changes in grandparental caregiving: Exploring the link to loneliness in Europe

This study investigates the impact of the overall intensity and changes in grandparental caregiving on loneliness in grandparents in European countries. Data from waves 5 to 8 of the Survey on Health, Ageing, and Retirement in Europe (SHARE) were used (N_individuals = 30,896 and N_observations = 48,562). We included grandparents (aged 50 years and over) with at least one grandchild at the beginning of the study. The analyses reveal that any intensity of grandparental care decreases the risk of loneliness. When looking at changes in grandparental care the results show that stable caregiving roles appeared to reduce loneliness, while starting to provide grandparental care makes grandparents more vulnerable to loneliness. In conclusion, our findings underscore that consistent grandparental care is important for grandparents in mitigating loneliness, highlighting the importance of sustained caregiving roles over fluctuations in caregiving intensity.

期刊介绍： Archives of Gerontology and Geriatrics provides a medium for the publication of papers from the fields of experimental gerontology and clinical and social geriatrics. The principal aim of the journal is to facilitate the exchange of information between specialists in these three fields of gerontological research. Experimental papers dealing with the basic mechanisms of aging at molecular, cellular, tissue or organ levels will be published. Clinical papers will be accepted if they provide sufficiently new information or are of fundamental importance for the knowledge of human aging. Purely descriptive clinical papers will be accepted only if the results permit further interpretation. Papers dealing with anti-aging pharmacological preparations in humans are welcome. Papers on the social aspects of geriatrics will be accepted if they are of general interest regarding the epidemiology of aging and the efficiency and working methods of the social organizations for the health care of the elderly.
