    Explaining Intergenerational Conflict When Adult Children and Elderly Parents Live Together
    Journal of Marriage and the Family; Vol. 50 (4) 1037-1047, November 1988

    Keywords: Caregiver-children, Intergenerational abuse

    In a random sample of 372 elderly parents sharing their home with adult children, low levels of intergenerational conflict were reported. Conflict was lower when the adult child was older and in a similar marital status as the parent. Conflict was not related to the parents' health or dependency upon the adult child. Thus, social characteristics were most important in predicting intergenerational conflict.

    Living Together: Grandparents and Children Tell Their Problems

  4. Journal of Gerontological Nursing; Vol. 11 (11) 29-33, 1985

    Keywords: Intergenerational abuse, Caregiver-children, Caregiver-stress/burden

    This paper discusses problems that arise when grandparents (elders) move in with the family. The role of the family as caregivers is discussed along with the burden and stress that many experience due to the presence of a chronically ill or demented elder in the home. Case studies show problems and feelings experienced by the elder and the family. Solutions are offered.

    The Dangers of Dependency: New Findings on Domestic Violence Against the Elderly
    Unpublished Paper - February 1985

    Keywords: Dependence, Caregiver-stress/burden

    This paper examines two conflicting hypothesis based on social exchange theory: 1) that the increased dependency of older people causes stress for relatives who then respond with physical violence, and 2) that the increased dependency of the abusive relative leads to maltreatment. The data consisted of 300 cases and results suggest that elderly victims are not likely to be more dependent, but are instead more likely to be supporting the dependent abuser. Implications for policy are discussed.

    Intergenerational Exchange and Subjective Well-Being Among the Elderly
    Journal of Marriage and the Family; Vol. 44 (1) 217-224, February 1982

    Keywords: Intergenerational abuse

    This article examines possible relationships between the intergenerational exchange of aid and the morale of the elderly in a sample of parents 60 or over. Data indicate no relationship between morale and the exchange of aid, and they add to the growing body of literature suggesting that interaction with kin has no demonstrable consequences for the emotional well-being of the elderly.

    Elders Versus Caregivers: Games They Play
    Geriatric Nursing; Vol. 9 (1) 30-34, January/February 1988

    Keywords: Dependence, Caregiver-children, Intergenerational abuse

    The quality of caring for elders at home can vary widely with some families providing supportive services and others providing care that is abusive and neglectful. The purpose of this research is to explore the caregivers' perceptions about the quality and dynamics of their caregiving relationships with their elderly using the inductive, qualitative grounded theory methodology. The sample size is addressed from two perspectives: the data bits and the theoretical sample of subjects.

    A Case Comparison Analysis of Elder Abuse and Neglect
    International Journal of Aging and Human Development ; Vol. 28 (3) 207-225, 1989

    Keywords: Theories

    This study examines factors which contribute to elderly abuse and neglect by caregivers in a domestic situation. Fifty-nine abused elders from a model project site for the study of elderly abuse were compared with forty-nine non-abused clients from the same agency. The study indicates that members of abused families are more likely to have emotional problems which contribute to interpersonal difficulties. Other findings are discussed.

    The Hospitalized Elderly and Intergenerational Conflict
    Journal of Applied Gerontology; Vol. 8 (3) 294-305, September 1989

    Keywords: Intergenerational abuse

    This article describes the findings of a study investigating intergenerational conflict between adult children and their hospitalized, chronically ill elderly parents. Data on 12 different areas of conflict and presence of negative feelings were collected from both generations. The older generation cited much less conflict when 27 adult child and hospitalized parent pairs were studied and asked to assess the degree of conflict between the generations. The author concluded that the parents may have cited far less conflict because they are in the less powerful position and have more at stake in the relationship and don't wish to upset their children.

    Elder Abuse and Child Abuse: A Consideration of Similarities and Differences in Intergenerational Family Violence
    In Press - Journal of Elder Abuse and Neglect - 1990

    Keywords: Intergenerational abuse, Theory
    Elder abuse has been compared with other forms of interfamilial violence. Despite obvious age and status differences, elder parents and young children exhibit similarities that make linking of elder and child abuse compelling. This paper suggests dimensions relevant to a comparison of intergenerational physical abuse of elder parents and young children.

    Satisfaction, Communication and Affection in Caregiving: A View from the Elder's Perspective
    Journal of Gerontological Social Work; Vol. 13 (3/4) 9-20, 1989

    Keywords: Caregiver-children, Caregiver-stress/burden

    This study examines the components of multigenerational caregiving relationships and highlights caregiving as experienced by the elder receiving care. The sample consisted of 33 elders from three ethnic backgrounds (blacks, hispanics, white). Findings indicate that improved quality of the relationship between elder and caregiver is related to a high degree of elder's satisfaction with the arrangement, whereas levels of the elder's functioning is not related to a degree of satisfaction. Findings also suggest that elders fear being a burden, hide their troubles and feelings and generally feel no sense of contribution to the household.

    Adult Children and Their Parents: Irredeemable Obligation and Irreplaceable Loss
    Gerontological Social Work With Families; 21-34, 1987

    Keywords: Caregiver-children

    Although the strong preference among older people is for independent living, a variety of problems can lead parents to move in with adult children. This living arrangement entails distinct social-psychological characteristics. This paper explores these characteristics in terms of feelings related to the loss of freedom, the children's sense of obligation and the parent's sense of loss. Recommendations are made regarding attitudinal changes which can increase both parents' and childrens' degree of satisfaction with this living arrangement.

    Power Dynamics in the Aging Family: A Preliminary Statement
    Journal of Gerontological Social Work; Vol. 11 (3/4) 43-55, 1987

    Keywords: Dependence

    Shifting patterns of power and dependence distinguish various periods in a family's life. This paper discusses the options available to dependent elders when faced with a loss of power within the family. Specifically, these options include coercion, bargains with caregivers, deference, and public interventions. Each alternative is defined and implications of each choice for the elder are identified. Strategies for empowerment are provided in order to strengthen professional understanding of intergenerational conflict.

    The Fit of Elder Abuse with the Family Violence Paradigm, and the Implications of a Paradigm Shift for Clinical Practice
    Public Health Nursing; Vol. 5 (4) 222-229, December 1989

    Keywords: Intergenerational abuse

    Elder abuse is one of the most complex, difficult, and frustrating problems that practicing public health nurses face. In part this frustration is related to the lack of fit between the family violence paradigm and the types of abuse most commonly encountered. Several issues are raised when this paradigm serves as the exclusive basis for concepts about elder abuse. A more comprehensive view is possible when this problem is placed in context of a family caregiving paradigm.

    Filial Responsibility Expectations Among Adult Child-Older Parent Pairs
    Journal of Gerontology: Psychological Sciences; Vol. 45 (3) 110-112, 1990

    Keywords: Intergenerational abuse, Caregiver-children

    Most respondents interpreted the filial role as including a great deal of emotional support and discussion of important matters and available resources. Results show a moderate level of intergenerational agreement of filial responsibility expectations.

    Status Transitions and Future Outlook as Determinants of Conflict: The Caregiver's Perspective
    The Gerontologist; Vol. 32 (1) 68-76, 1992

    Keywords: Caregiver-stress/burden, Intergenerational abuse

    The data collected from 117 pairs of caregivers and care receivers confirmed the notion that future outlook is a prediction of conflict for the pair. The study found that care receivers have more negative future outlooks and that caregivers underestimate the needs of the elderly and disagree with the concerns of the elderly. Those who had negative outlooks were more likely to perceive greater conflicts in their relationships.

    For Better or Worse: Spouse Abuse Grown Old
    Journal of Elder Abuse and Neglect; Vol. 8 (1) 1-32, 1996

    Keywords: Caregiver-spouse/partner

    Spouse abuse is one of the more common forms of elder abuse but little is known about its causes and consequences. This study focuses on older couples to determine the prevalence of risk factors previously identified for spouse abuse in studies of younger couples. Results from the study indicate that although the incidence of spouse abuse in older couples is significantly less than that of younger couples, many of the risk factors present in abusive couple relationships are the same.

    The Intergenerational Cycle of Violence in Child and Elder Abuse
    Journal of Elder Abuse and Neglect; Vol. 7 (1), 1-15, 1995

    Keywords: Intergenerational abuse, Caregiver-children

    This article reviews existing research on the intergenerational transmission of both child and elder abuse in families. The authors' findings on intergenerational transmission of physical violence comparing child abusing parents and elder abusing children, using the Conflict Tactics Scale, are then reported. Findings suggest that child abusing parents were more likely than elder abusing children to have experienced severe domestic violence as children.

    The Abuse of Elderly Men
    Journal of Elder Abuse and Neglect; Vol. 9 (3), 69-88, 1998

    Keywords: Self-neglect, Intergenerational abuse, Lesbian/Gay, Institutional care-abuse/neglect, Gender, Victim profile

    This article discusses the high rates of self-abuse by elderly men and their high risk of abuse by others when they are lonely, living in inner cities, incarcerated, or homosexual. Abuse of elderly men occurs in domestic settings by spouses, children, relatives, and friends, and in institutional settings by paid employees. The article discusses varying situations that precede occurrences of abuse of elderly men that affect the quality of their lives.

    Elder Abuse by Daughters-in-Law in Japan
    Journal of Elder Abuse and Neglect; Vol. 11 (1), 47-58, 1999

    Keywords: Japanese, Neglect, Caregiver-children, Intergenerational abuse

    The purpose of this article was to review and discuss the findings of two studies conducted in
    Japan in 1993 and 1997 on the issue of domestic elder abuse. These studies surveyed social workers and home aides, and found that neglect by daughters-in-law to be the most prevalent type of elder abuse occurring in Japanese homes. This phenomenon was attributed to poor relationships between daughters-in-law and their in-laws. Relevant research findings are reported.

    Ethical Dilemmas in Treating Cases of Abuse of Older People in the Family
    International Journal of Law, Policy and the Family; Vol. 12(3), 345-355, 1998

    Keywords: Intergenerational abuse, Ethics

    This article discusses the ethical dilemmas that professionals face when dealing with cases of elder abuse, especially cases involving members of the elder's family. Also discussed are questions that professionals must answer on their own prior to intervening, as well as situations in which the victim of abuse is also an abuser. The article suggests that reallocating resources for the elderly could be an important means of diminishing elder abuse.

Based on her study of family literacy, which included the examination of current models of family literacy programs, ethnographic literature, and interactions with immigrant and refugee students, Auerbach proposes a broadening of the definition for family literacy, and a reevaluation of the family literacy model. Instead of a family literacy model that attempts to transmit school practices to the home, Auerbach supports a sociocontextual approach that incorporates family, culture, and community. The author discusses this new model of family literacy and provides examples and suggestions for its implementation.

This book provides a good overview of the family literacy movement. It explains the need for family literacy programs, provides a comprehensive definition of family literacy, and traces the history of such programs. Guidelines and suggestions on how to anticipate and deal with the issues of family literacy are offered to policymakers and practitioners. Finally, key issues about the future of the family literacy movement are addressed. The book is divided into the following eight chapters: (1) Family Literacy: The Need and the Promise; (2) Defining Family Literacy; (3) The History of Family Literacy; (4) The Research: How Do We Know If Family Literacy Works?; (5) Building a Community Family Literacy Program; (6) Developing a State Family Literacy Initiative; (7) Challenges for the Family Literacy Movement; and (8) The Future of Family Literacy.

The authors note that discussion pertaining to parent and family roles in early childhood initiatives appear to be missing or distorted. To address this omission, the authors depict ways in which families are critical to early childhood program access and how the programs influence parents' well being. This chapter also highlights how child outcomes are mediated through program effects on parents. It also shows how parent involvement is contingent on the relationships among parents, staff, and children. The authors review four types of programs: parent-focused home-based programs, parent-focused combination center- and home-based programs, intergenerational family literacy programs, and parent-focused literacy programs. These programs are discussed in relation to parent and family outcomes. The authors also examine the role of parents as catalysts of change in early intervention programs. The final two sections focus on policy, implications for practice, and recommendations for programs and their evaluations.

32.   Gadsden, V. L. (1994). Understanding family literacy: Conceptual issues. Teachers College Record, 96, 58–86.
This article examines the current research in the field of family literacy. The first of the articles's four sections identifies major sources of influence on current literacy research, such as cross-cultural and social issues, intergenerational literacy, and parent-child literacy, as well as the influence of practice. The second section, about the nature of families and family support, describes five assumptions as the foundation of a conceptual framework. Gadsden then discusses the recent policy impetus for family support efforts and explains how it serves to link literacy to family support. She argues that before this link can be successful, literacy research and practice must catch up in the areas of family functioning and development. She concludes by stressing that family literacy learning be conceptualized broadly and as an ongoing activity that varies alongside changing life needs.

This chapter focuses on the conceptual and theoretical issues of intergenerational literacy in families. The first section discusses the issues associated with a more expansive and critical framework to study intergenerational literacy. For example, Gadsden suggests that a need exists to identify different features of learning, literacy, families, human development, and intergenerationality in order to fully understand how families acquire, use and value literacy. The second section considers the theoretical context in which this framework is emerging. Four areas of research are suggested to contribute to this context: parent-child book reading, family literacy and parent-child interactions around print, intergenerational learning, and the family life course. The chapter ends with a discussion on the use and importance of having an expanded framework on intergenerational literacy.

34.   Kerka, S. (1991). Family and intergenerational literacy (ERIC Digest No. 111). Columbus, OH: ERIC Clearinghouse on Adult, Career, and Vocational Education. (ERIC Document Reproduction Service No. 334 467).
This article provides a brief overview of family literacy through a discussion of current program designs, definitions of literacy, the need for research on program effectiveness, perspectives of and issues related to literacy, and suggestions for program development. Kerka highlights and gives examples of four types of family/intergenerational literacy programs. Drawing on research from related fields, Kerka suggests that literacy should be taught comprehensively, with the involvement of the whole family, and within a community context. The author discusses issues in family literacy such as the "deficit" perspective which emphasizes transmitting literacy skills from the school to the family versus the perspective of building on the strength of parents' knowledge and experience. Finally, Kerka makes five recommendations for program development: these include using a broad definition of literacy and being sensitive to cultural differences.

35.   Kerka, S. (1992). Family literacy programs and practices: Practice application brief. Columbus, OH: ERIC Clearinghouse on Adult, Career and Vocational Education. (ERIC Document Reproduction Service No. 347 328).
This Practice Application Brief serves as an overview of some of the basic components of family literacy programs. The brief begins by discussing the philosophy that underlies family and intergenerational literacy programs and perspectives from which the programs are modeled. The author espouses programs based on an empowerment model (drawing on family strength) rather than those based on the "deficit" model. The author classifies effective family/intergenerational literacy programs into four categories based upon Nickse's model. The four models (adult direct-children direct, adult indirect-children indirect, adult direct-children indirect, and adult indirect-children direct) are discussed with a description and example provided for each type. Also included in this brief are strategies for effective program implementation. Topics discussed with regard to implementing and maintaining an effective program are audience, recruitment and retention, subject matter, and recognition.

This book presents 20 essays relevant to the field of family literacy. The first section is an examination of the many definitions and perspectives of family literacy. The second section describes family literacy programs run by schools and other organizations. Several of the essays in this section provide ideas for schools, community agencies, and families. In the final section, the reader is introduced to several examples of family literacy research. Implications for practitioners are provided. The authors include Lesley Mandel Morrow, Patricia Edwards, Elsa Roberts Auerbach, Jeanne R. Paratore, and Vivian L. Gadsden.

37.   Morrow, L. M., & Paratore, J. (1993). Family literacy: Perspective and practices. Reading Teacher, 47, 194–200.
In this article, the authors discuss current views, practices, and applications in family literacy. Because literacy activities at school and at home are sometimes seen as incongruent with one another, the authors suggest that the term family literacy be viewed in the broadest sense. The authors categorize family literacy initiatives into three areas (home-school partnership programs, intergenerational literacy programs, and research examining literacy use in families) and provide a description of each. Community collaboration and partnerships are noted as integral to the future of family literacy. Examples of collaboration in federal and state level family literacy programs are described. The need for evaluation of family literacy initiatives is stressed and methods of disseminating information regarding family literacy are presented.

Columbus, OH: ERIC Clearinghouse on Adult, Career and Vocational Education, The Ohio State University Center on Education and Training for Employment. (ERIC Document Reproduction Services No. ED 327 736).
This report serves as a comprehensive overview of family and intergenerational literacy programs for a wide audience, including policymakers, legislators, program administrators and staff, and individuals interested in family literacy education. The first section of this report provides background information such as definitions, purposes, federal legislation, and sponsorships that have produced literacy initiatives, program expectations, and reasons and motivations for validating program development. The second section of the report discusses research from related fields of study that justify family and intergenerational literacy program growth. In the third section, the author describes family and intergenerational literacy programs in the following five sectors: (1) adult basic education; (2) libraries; (3) family English literacy; (4) preschool and elementary education; and (5) corporations and businesses. A table is included in the report that depicts strengths and challenges for each sector. A typology for classifying family and intergenerational literacy programs based upon the intervention type and target is presented. The result is four models of programs (direct adults-direct children, indirect adults-indirect children, direct adults-indirect children, and indirect adults-direct children) for which the author provides examples and discusses advantages and disadvantages for each.

39.   Nickse, R. S. (1990). Family literacy programs: Ideas for action. Adult Learning, 1, 9–13, 28–29.
In this article, Nickse addresses factors that perpetuate illiteracy. She then discusses benefits of family literacy programs, including improved attitudes, behavior, and reading skills for parent and child. Although there has been some empirical evidence supporting the effectiveness of programs, there needs to be more research in the field. For example, she found no evidence of changes in achievement for participants in family literacy programs. Nickse describes four basic models for delivering family literacy services and provides examples of each type of program. Suggestions for designing programs that address local needs, as well as ways to secure funding for programs are discussed. Nickse also addresses issues related to program design effectiveness (e.g., collaboration and parent participation) and administration and management of programs (e.g., staff, funding, and sites). The author then covers some matters associated with teaching (e.g., collaborative approaches and multiculturalism). The article concludes with tips for program evaluation (e.g., techniques and information dissemination).

This issue is dedicated to the topic of family literacy. An introduction is followed by seven articles regarding various aspects of family literacy. The topics addressed in the articles include the importance of the family in literacy development; the Parents as Partners Reading Program; school outreach programs; the varying use of print in families; creating cultural connections between parents and their children; project FLAME and family literacy programs for Latino families; and the use of family portfolios to evaluate family literacy programs.

This themed issue is a collection of articles that present broad and diverse views of family literacy. The authors challenge educators to reexamine the deficit hypothesis, which they believe derives from a lack of congruence between home and school literacy experiences and a lack of understanding about the practice of literacy in linguistically and culturally diverse families. The authors' goal is for readers to reformulate their ideas about family literacy programs and practices in order to promote home/school partnerships.

42.   Ponzetti, J. J., & Bodine, W. J. (1993). Family literacy and parent education. Adult Basic Education, 3(2), 106–114.
This article presents a conceptual model of family literacy programs with descriptions of program components and discusses the importance of parent education in family literacy programs. Ponzetti and Bodine define family literacy programs as having two unique features that make them different from other services provided for parents and children. First, family literacy programs focus on the family as a unit, and second, these programs provide joint literacy activities to families (adults and children together) that are applicable to their daily lives. The component model presented proposes that family literacy programs have three key ingredients: Adult Basic Education, Early Childhood Education, and Parenting Education. The authors provide a description of each component. Last, the authors elaborate on the importance of parenting education in family literacy programs.

This article explores issues researchers of family literacy must address to achieve valid study results. These issues include better understanding the relationship among poverty, families with low literacy levels, and emergent literacy; finding effective methods for understanding the ways in which families contribute to future school success; attempting to gain more congruence between the results of studies and the perceptions and experiences of the families and communities being studied; and refraining from inferring causal relationships from correlations. Purcell-Gates illustrates these issues with an example of an ongoing family literacy study.

This chapter divides into three parts. The first part reviews the research that provides the foundation on which family literacy is based. These areas include the family as a foundation for learning, language and literacy development; emergent literacy; written, vocabulary/language, print, phonological awareness and letter-sound knowledge; as well as motivation. The second part discusses two different approaches to family literacy. Descriptive approaches to family literacy focus on how families use literacy. Pedagogical approaches focus on the kinds of family literacy programs. Family literacy programs range from teaching or training families specific literacy practices to beliefs that approaches need to incorporate mutual respect and collaboration with families. The third part reviews the effectiveness of family literacy programs on the impact of children's skills, achievement, and attitudes; the impact on parents' academic skills, literate behaviors, and confidence/self-esteem; and the impact on parent/child literacy interactions. The chapter ends with conclusions based on the family literacy research and with suggestions for future research in family literacy.

In this article, the authors discuss the importance of families and schools working together to improve the literacy skills of both children and adults. Definitions of family literacy and intergenerational literacy are examined. The authors propose broadening these definitions to include
shared experiences among family members in which something new is learned. The importance of and suggestions for including the family in the planning and implementation of literacy programs is noted. The authors describe strategies for promoting literacy in the home and strengthening the family-school connection. The authors view collaboration between families and schools as a tool for empowering both and as a way to satisfy the National Goals 2000.

In an effort to counter what is described as the prevailing deficit-based view of family literacy, a group of 50 participants from around the world gathered at the International Forum on Family Literacy to set up principles for redefining family literacy. The intent was to have a broad spectrum of professionals address issues related to the family literacy movement, especially issues related to ethical and human rights concerns. This book, a result of that conference, identifies a set of principles for family literacy and presents a compilation of articles on family literacy by researchers, teachers and parent learners. Challenging the reader to question practices based on a deficit view of family literacy, the articles cover the many different types of families served in family literacy programs, the general principles of language and literacy, ethics in research and program development, and principles for assessment, funding agencies and policymakers.

47.   Tett, L., & St. Clair, R., (1997). Family literacy in the educational marketplace: A cultural perspective. International Journal of Lifelong Education, 16(2), 109–120.
The authors discuss two recent developments, the spread of family-centered approaches to literacy education and the view of the family as a consumer of education. They argue that the view of families as consumers of education has lead to a school-centered dominance of family literacy programs. They highlight a number of problems they see as associated with the implementation of family literacy programs that espouse school-centered approaches to literacy. By contrast, they advocate programs that are responsive to the family's culture and that support home-based literacy uses. They also argue against a deficit-based view thought to be guiding current beliefs in the field of family literacy.

Kinzer (Eds.), Perspectives on literacy: Research and practice, forty-fourth yearbook of the National Reading Conference (pp. 280–288). Chicago: National Reading Conference. (ERIC Document Reproduction Service No. ED 379 611).
To pull together and facilitate further knowledge within the field of family literacy, as well as to better define family literacy, Tracey conducted a comprehensive review of the literature. Using the descriptor "family literacy" on two indexes within the ERIC system (Resources in Education (RIE) and Current Indexes to Journals in Education (CIJE)), 409 references and abstracts were located and reviewed. For the final reporting of the literature, 135 documents were sorted into 3 main categories—research emphasis (19 percent), program descriptions (35 percent), and position papers (38 percent)—and then analyzed. Several strengths, weaknesses, and needs in the literature emerged as a result of the review. The primary weaknesses noted were a lack of clear and agreed-upon definitions in the field; a disproportionately small percentage of documents created from a research perspective; a too narrow focus on topics that would fit more appropriately into areas outside of family literacy; and a lack of research on program efficacy. Primary strengths included the fact that the attrition rate for participants in family literacy programs is considerably smaller than in adult literacy programs, and that documented research consistently supports the finding that participants of family literacy programs are benefited by increased positive literacy interactions in the home between parent and child as a correlate of participation.

In this document, the author addresses five questions related to family and intergenerational literacy programs and the multilingual families enrolled in these programs. Weinstein-Shr first addresses the subtle difference between family and intergenerational literacy programs by explaining that the first term focuses primarily on the parent and child while the second term more broadly includes other adults. She identifies the goals of these programs to be promoting parental involvement; improving of skills, attitudes, values, and behaviors associated with reading; increasing the social significance of literacy; and addressing the unique problems of relocated families. The author suggests that programs build on family strengths, emphasize collaboration, and acknowledge both the native culture of the participants as well as the new culture. In addition, she suggests continuing ethnographic research because the functions and uses of language and literacy in specific communities is becoming increasingly important.
