摘要：

本文基于加拿大 1996年移民数据,利用单因素和多因素Logit模型分析方法,试图研究文化因素对老年人居住方式的影响。主要结论如下:文化因素对老年人居住方式的选择有重要影响;文化的同化对移民居住方式的选择有显著作用,表现为移民时间越早的移民老年人独立居住的倾向越强;文化同化速度的快慢对不同种族来源的移民来说是不同的。该文认为,在未来相当长的时间内,与子女合住仍然是中国老年人居住方式的主流。

The micro data used in this paper came from the census data 1996 in Canada.By using single and multivariate statistical binomial logistic model, this paper examines the propensity of living independently among elderly immigrants with different culture backgrounds in Canada.This paper concludes with (1)that the time of immigration has strong effects on living choice among elderly male immigrants in Canada.Earlier the immigration was, the more the propensity for living independently was.It means that acculturation really has clear effects on the living choice among immigrants;(2)that there is a time differential in the acculturation of different groups.The immigrants from more Eastern culture context maintain the original culture longer than the immigrants form more Western culture context.The authors believe that co-living with adult children will be still the main stream among the elderly in China.
