摘要：

利用西安交通大学人口与发展研究所跟踪调查数据, 采用个体增长模型, 考察代际支持对农村老人生活自理能力的纵向影响。发现获得经济支持或日常照料加速了老人生活自理能力的衰退速度, 提供经济支持或日常照料以及情感支持减缓了其生活自理能力的衰退速度;结果体现了代际支持对健康的选择效应和用进废退理论, 揭示了代际支持是以老人需求为中心, 老人在健康允许下的利他行为有助于生活自理能力的良好发展。

Using the data conducted by the Institute for Population and Development Studies of Xi'an Jiaotong University. This study employed individual growth model with the nested-structure data to analyze the influence of intergenerational support on the trend of activity of daily living of the rural elderly in China. The results showed that receiving financial support or instrumental support from adult children accelerated the descending rate of older parents' ADL, and providing intergenerational financial support or instrumental support to adult children, and stronger emotional cohesion with children decelerated the descending rate of older parents' ADL. The results revealed intergenerational support is based on the demand of the elderly, and under the condition of permission, the altruism behavior of the elderly could improve physical health of the elderly, which reflects that the concept of "enjoying oneself completely" for the elderly should be pondered again.
