Migration Decisions in the Fourth Age: The Case of East Asian Retirees in Thailand.
Previous studies have not amply explored the next move of older adults currently spending their retirement abroad. This paper examined the future migration decisions of East Asian retirees in the last stage of life marked by frailty, dependency, and abjection (i.e. the fourth age). A survey of Chinese and Japanese retirees in Thailand (n = 204) was conducted during 2019-2021. Binary logistic regression analysis indicated that age, income, religion, residence, Thai spouse/partner, and property at origin were significantly associated with future migration decisions (p < .05). Future research and policymaking should enhance Thailand's capacity to facilitate fourth age living.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Aging & Social Policy offers a platform for insightful contributions from an international and interdisciplinary group of policy analysts and scholars. It provides an in-depth examination and analysis of critical phenomena that impact aging and the development and implementation of programs for the elderly from a global perspective, with a broad scope that encompasses not only the United States but also regions including Europe, the Middle East, Australia, Latin America, Asia, and the Asia-Pacific rim.
The journal regularly addresses a wide array of issues such as long-term services and supports, home- and community-based care, nursing-home care, assisted living, long-term care financing, financial security, employment and training, public and private pension coverage, housing, transportation, health care access, financing, and quality, family dynamics, and retirement. These topics are of significant importance to the field of aging and social policy, reflecting the journal's commitment to presenting a comprehensive view of the challenges and solutions related to aging populations around the world.
