Perceived Health Status of and Moderating Factors in Elderly People Caring for Their Grandchildren.

CONCLUSION: Our data suggest that regular financial support in return for grandchild care may be a moderating factor in the association between grandchild care and the perceived health status of elderly people. These findings have important social implications and warrant future study to reveal the psychological mechanism of these associations and enhance the health of elderly individuals.
