AB - The purpose of this study is to analyses the living arrangements of elderly parents and their married children in Japan and Korea. Data for this study was obtained from an international comparative study by the Japanese Government Cabinet Office in 2001. All subjects were aged 60 years and older living at home with one or more surviving children in either Japan (n=1,085) or South Korea (n=984) in 2001. Logistic regression analysis was used to estimate the factors for the living arrangements of the Elderly parents and married children. Within specific age cohorts, financial status indicators revealed that: 1) houses owned by the elderly or their family had a significant effect on living with married children for both 70 years or older in Korea and Japan and 60-69 years-old in Japan, 2) Among 70 years-old or older in Korea and 60-69 years-old in Japan, those that prepared financially for retirement during their 50’s had a significant effect on living with married children, 3) Among Koreans 60-69 years-old, the main source of income had a significant effect on living with married children, Family relations indicators revealed that: 1) Taking care of an infant had a significant effect on the living with married children indicators for both 60 years and older in Japan and Korea, 2) Among 60-69 years-old in both Korea and Japan and 70 years-old or older in Korea, have householder duties which had a significant effect on living with married children 3) Among those 70 years-old or older in Korea and Japan, surviving spouse had a significant effect on living with married children. These findings support the hypothesis that the determinants of living arrangements of the elderly parents and married children in Japan and South Korea are rough for not only the needs of elderly parents but also married children.
