Relocation of the Elderly: A Social Context for Stress

Pages 3-11 | Published online: 09 Jun 2015
 

Abstract

Studies of the relocation of the elderly have generally been done from an atheoretical perspective. This paper presents a theory which is derived from the integration of a theory of general housing adjustment, a theory of relocation, and a theory of stress handling. Some of the implications of this theory are discussed in terms of variable selection, hypothesis formation, and management practices.
