Mail: Social Relationships

Sibling Mail: Social Relationships Module

OVERVIEW

This module, although replicating some portions of the 2005 mail survey's
Social Relationships section, features significant additions. Items focusing on
whether or not the participant feels they have someone they can share their
private feelings with, the types of help and support they have given and/or
received from people other than a spouse in the past month, and perceptions of
who - other than a spouse - they could ask for specified situational help have
been retained from the 2005 survey. Complementing these emphases are items
ascertaining the participant's use of personal vehicles and/or public
transportation to get from place to place, their reliance on unpaid help from
friends or family members - and corresponding concerns about burdening them -
their worries about aging and old age, difficulties they encountered while
caring for a person identified during the in-person CAPI interview's Care
Giving Module, and their overall reactions to caring for that person. 

See also the CAPI administered Care Giving Module. If the participant is
currently providing unpaid personal care to anyone, they will be asked to focus
on the person who requires the most care during the Social Relationships
section of the mail survey. If they are not currently caring for anyone, but
have done so on an unpaid basis in the past, they will be asked to focus on the
person whom they've provided the most care for ever.

Note: During the Caregiving Module of the CAPI interview, the participant was asked about people for whom they currently provide or previously provided unpaid care. If the participant reported providing unpaid care to someone at any point in time, a name was written into the instructions on pages 52 and 53 of the Social Relationships section of the mail survey (covered by variables PV451RER-PV472RER below). For participants who reported currently providing unpaid personal care to someone, the name of the person who currently requires the most care was written in. For participants not currently caring for anyone, but who reported providing unpaid care in the past, the name of the person who required the most care ever was written in. If the participant did not report ever caring for anyone on an unpaid basis, pages 52 and 53 were crossed out and variables PV451RER-PV472RER have been assigned values of "-2" and coded as inappropriate. For more information about the recipient of the participant's care selected as the subject of further surveying in the mail questionnaire (if applicable), see variables PV901RER-PV903RER below.
