Hi  Jing Wu, Please see our publications regarding the "Value of Child and Intergenerational Relations Study (VOC-IR)" (cross-cultural studies on aspects of  IG within the family). Regarding solidarity see Isabelle Albert`s (Univ.Luxembourg) project and publications.

Hi Gisela!

Thanks so much for your prompt reply and invaluable information!

Actually with you we have co-written one article and have it published in Ageing & Society in 2016, based on VOC-IR database. https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/ageing-and-society/article/div-classtitleassociations-between-quality-of-relationships-and-life-satisfaction-of-older-mothers-in-estonia-germany-russia-and-chinadiv/BAEF3DF4AC4E1B274381153BF894A31B#

If I understand correctly, Sweden is not in the list of respondents countries in VOC-IR study, is it? I would like to get public datasets regarding IR for Sweden, if possible.

I will read through IR publications you mentioned above.

Many thanks again!

Regards,

Jing

right, Sweden has not been included in the data set but 18 other countries are part.

I am very glad that you are still interested in the VOC study.  I will send you some recent publications in a few days.

Best and Happy New Year for you, gisela

Thanks so much, Gisela! I look forward to getting and reading these publications. My email address is [email protected]

Wish you Happy New Year! 

Best,

Jing

You may look into the Longitudinal Study of Generations http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/NACDA/studies/22100

Hi Mallory,

Thanks so much for your sharing info of this very interesting study! I checked and found that Principal Investigator(s) are Merril Silverstein and Vern L. Bengtson!

I will read the publications based on this study. Thanks again for the link!

With best wishes,

Jing

It is interesting to read about this important topic. Are there any studies on Intergenerational Relations with the focus on families who lived through wars

Dear Jing, 

You should definitely have a look at the Generations and Gender Survey http://www.ggp-i.org/

Kind regards, 

Judith

Thanks so much, dear Judith! I will have a look at it!
