ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study was to investigate intergenerational differences in the associations of social capital attributes (family network, friend network, community cohesion) and perceived family support (instrumental, informational, emotional) with loneliness among Korean adults. Interview data were collected from participants aged 18+ in South Korea during 2017 (Ng= 1,017), classified by three age groups (18–44, 45–64, 65+). In regression models, greater loneliness was associated with smaller friend networks and lower community cohesion for the younger group, lower information support and higher instrumental support for the middle-aged group, and lower informational and emotional support for the older group.

摘要

本研究的目的是调查韩国成年人之间社会资本属性（家庭网络，朋友网络，社区凝聚力）和感知到的家庭支持（工具性，信息性，情感性）之间的代际差异。访谈数据来自2017年韩国18岁以上的参与者（吴= 1,017），按三个年龄段（18-44、45-64、65 +）分类。在回归模型中，较大的孤独感与较小的朋友网络和较低的年轻人群体的社区凝聚力，较低的信息支持和对中年人群的较高工具支持以及较低的对老年人的信息和情感支持相关。
