In this study two sample groups of very old people report on needs for care among their parents. We report on who gave the care and if parents were institutionalized. Information on social class, preferences for care for oneself, etc., was also collected. Comparisons with contemporary data indicate that patterns of care remain historically quite stable, and that experiences of providing care influences one's own preferences many years later. The welfare state seems to have increased the freedom of choice for, especially, the poorer elderly.
在本研究中，两组高龄老人样本报告了他们父母的护理需求。我们报告了护理提供者以及父母是否被送进养老院。还收集了社会阶层、自我护理偏好等方面的信息。与当代数据的比较表明，护理模式在历史上相当稳定，而且多年后提供护理的经历会影响个人自身的偏好。福利国家似乎尤其增加了较贫困老年人的选择自由。
