There have been recent reforms of guardianship systems focusing on the rights of older persons in Australia, Austria, Canada, England, Germany, and the United States. Little is known, however, about the lives of guardians. Equity theory guided the investigation of four styles of guardianship: the tough, sympathetic, challenged, and sad. Among 317 guardians, perceptions of inequity and benefit differentiated the sad and tough from others. Implications for practice are suggested.
最近,澳大利亚、奥地利、加拿大、英国、德国和美国针对老年人权利对监护制度进行了改革。然而,人们对监护人的生活却知之甚少。公平理论指导了对四种监护方式的调查:强硬型、同情型、受挑战型和悲伤型。在317名监护人中,不公平感和受益感将悲伤型监护人和强硬型监护人与其他类型区分开来。文中还提出了对实践的启示。
