Applied Research Questions

1. Find an article similar to Holroyd’s (AN_5163402) and compare and contrast the adult daughters’ caregiving obligations to a non-US culture and then to our US culture. Articulate the key cultural components that contribute to these variations in expectations.

2. Find another scholarly article about widowers (men) and compare their well-being after the death of their spouse in the same areas that Hungerford (AN_4121235) used in his study.

3. Find at least two articles similar to Wagner’s (AN_7542024) which compare and contrast the U.S. elderly to those in another rich country and in a less developed country. What role does national standard of living play in the quality of life for elderly?
