Description

Gina Lee and William Chopik study, in twenty twenty-four, how support and strain in close ties shape how people view their own aging. Positive views of aging link to longer life and better cognition. The team asked if views shift with support and strain from spouses, children, family, and friends, all at once. Past work tested one tie at a time. They used twelve years of data from more than twenty-two thousand older adults in a United States aging study, with models that track within-person change.

Strain tied more closely to aging views than support did. Spousal support and positive views reinforced each other. Strain from other family and friends, oddly, linked to more positive views. Child support and strain showed no link.
