Description
Meeryoung Kim asks which kind of social support actually lifts older Koreans' well-being, and whether the answer differs for men and women. She separates support received in practice from support people merely believe they could call on. Using two waves of a national retirement survey covering 4,338 adults over sixty, she models health and life satisfaction. Received emotional support mattered for everyone's health.
Believed emotional support helped only men's health, while believed practical support helped only women's. Nearly every support type fed women's life satisfaction, but practical support did not move men's. Kim advises tailoring support by both type and gender.
