Decision-Making Influence Strategies of Caregiving Daughters and Their Elderly Mothers.
Pratt, Clara C.; And Others
Family Relations, v42 n4 p376-82 Oct 1993
Identified influence strategies used by elderly care-receiving mothers and their caregiving daughters, including positive strategies, overt and covert negative strategies, and option seeking. Findings from 64 mother-daughter pairs revealed that mother's health, level of dependency, and residence were not related to most strategy use. Negative strategies were associated with reduced intimacy; positive strategies were associated with greater intimacy. (Author/NB)
