Abstract:

This study has three objectives- to identify the socio-economic difference between the empty nest and non-empty nest rural elderly, to find out the difference between them based on their relationship with their children, and to differentiate the pattern of mental anxieties between them. The social survey method has been applied for data collection. For the empty-nest elderly, the researcher has selected three villages under the district of Jhenaidah. The non-empty-nest elderly researcher has established Shatoil village under the district of Naogaon. Data were collected from a total of 132 (100 non-empty-nest and 32 empty-nest) respondents using purposive sampling with informed consent. A semi-structured interview schedule was applied to collect the data. In this study, most empty-nest respondents' socio-economic conditions were satisfactory, but non-empty-nest respondents' socio-economic conditions were not. In both cases, the highest of the (empty-nest and non-empty-nest) respondents’ relationship with children was good and had no difference. The main difference between them is in the case of service providers. The greatest of the non-empty-nest elderly did not feel loneliness and mental anxieties. On the other hand, all the empty-nest respondents felt lonely and most suffered from mental anxietyanxieties. GOs and NGOs should build up adult recreation centers and old homes and train elders on using modern technology (such as Facebook, WhatsApp, Messenger, Skype, etc.) to communicate with children. It will mitigate their loneliness and mental anxiety

Abstract:

Background The number of empty nest elderly in China has gradually increased in recent years. There is growing concern about the physical and mental health of this population as empty nest elderly are commonly at the risk of compromising health, home safety and quality of life. This study reported the health and well-being of empty nest elderly with regards to their health status, depression and satisfaction, lifestyle as compared to non-empty nest elderly in China. Methods Data was collected from the 2018 follow-up interviews of China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Survey. We included 4,630 empty nest elderly and 6,188 non-empty nest elderly. Chi-square Test and Logistic Regression were used to compare the differences between these two groups. Results As compared to the non-empty nest elderly, there was higher proportion of empty nest elderly who suffered from dyslipidemia, diabetes, chronic lung diseases, heart attack (27.0% vs. 25.0%; 16.6% vs. 15.1%; 19.4% vs. 16.4%; 26.3% vs. 23.4%, P < 0.05). The empty nest elderly had higher proportion of participants who drank more than once a month (25.3% vs. 23.9%, P < 0.05), who felt satisfied with their marriage (71.6% vs. 66.2%, P < 0.001), who were satisfied with their children’s relationship (85.2% vs. 83.2%, P < 0.001). However, these significances disappeared in the Logistic Regression analysis (P > 0.05). Conclusion Our study showed that significant between-group difference was found between empty nest elderly and non-empty nest elderly in their health and wellbeing. However, disappearance of such difference in the multivariable analysis may indicate improved health and wellbeing among the empty nest elderly. Even though our study still suggested the importance of improving the health, lifestyles and family dynamics of the elderly and promoting the integration of health and social care for the elderly, especially among the empty nest elderly.

Abstract:

With the development of the economy and the improvement of medical standards, the material life of community empty nest elderly people has been basically satisfied, but their psychological problems are gradually increasing. Taking the urban community in Kunming as an example, the group work is involved in the social interaction services of the empty nest elderly in the community. Combining the actual situation of the social interaction of the empty nest elderly in the city, the group work is carried out to tap the resources around the empty nest elderly and meet the social needs of the empty nest elderly. Research has found that most empty nest elderly people are in a state of severe or moderate loneliness, eager to gain access to their activity and social circles. Group work can help empty nest elderly people establish a sense of belonging, increase social interaction opportunities, expand social interaction content, enhance social adaptability, and help empty nest elderly people alleviate their sense of loneliness.

Abstract:

This study aimed to explore the impact of social participation (SP) on physical functioning and depression among empty-nest elderly taking part in the fourth wave of the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Survey (CHARLS, 2018). The instrumental variable (IV) method and propensity score matching (PSM) method were used to analyse the impact of SP. The two-stage regression results of the IV method showed that SP has a significant negative impact on the physical functioning scores of empty-nest elderly (β = −3.539, p < 0.001) and non-empty-nest elderly (β = −4.703, p < 0.001), and SP has a significant negative impact on the depression scores of empty-nest elderly (β = −2.404, p < 0.001) and non-empty-nest elderly (β = −1.957, p < 0.001). The results of the PSM method were basically consistent with the IV method. Compared with non-empty-nest elderly, SP had more positive effects on the depression of empty-nest elderly (Wald χ2 = 6.62, p = 0.010). Providing a friendly and supportive environment for the SP of empty-nest elderly was an important measure to promote healthy ageing. Targeted SP may be one of the greatest opportunities to improve the mental health of empty-nest elderly.

Abstract:

Dorothy Canfield coined “Empty Nest” terminology in her book (Mothers and Children, 1914). Empty Nest is the phase that begins along with the contraction stage of the family life cycle in which children move out of their parental home to relocate either to a different city or country for educational and professional purposes. There are two sides to Empty Nest: some parents grow as individuals and as a couple after the contraction phase, while others struggle to adjust during this time. Therefore, when parents struggle to adjust to the contraction phase, they experience Empty Nest Syndrome. There is a stew of studies explaining the psychological and physical symptoms that predict the manifestation of Empty Nest Syndrome among parents. All the studies are from various parts of the world, with different perspectives and approaches to parenting and the Empty Nest Phase. Despite differences, the world has followed the same family pattern for generations. Hence, the objective of the present piece of paper is to analyse the extensive review of literature about different perspectives on Empty Nest Syndrome for a better understanding of the Empty Nest phase in the eastern and western world.

Abstract:

IntroductionInstitutional care has been strongly promoted in China to meet seniors’ long-term care needs. Empty-nest elderly, in comparison with their counterparts, have less social support and fewer caring networks. This study aimed to compare the utilisation willingness for institutional care and its predictors between empty-nest and non-empty-nest seniors.MethodsA total of 3923 seniors were included in the analysis. Binary logistic regression models were used to understand the association between the living arrangements of the elderly households and willingness for institutional care and to identify the predictors of the utilisation willingness for institutional care among empty nesters and non-empty nesters.ResultsOur study found that approximately 8.5% of the seniors had a willingness for institutional care in Shandong, China. Empty-nest singles (OR 5.301; 95% CI 2.838 to 9.904) and empty-nest couples (OR 1.547; 95% CI 1.135 to 2.107) were found to be more willing to receive institutional care. Our results also showed that residence was a key determinant for institutionalisation willingness in empty-nest and non-empty-nest elderly. Among empty-nest singles, psychological stress was a positive determinant for institutional care. Factors, including education attainment, relationship with adult children, household income and per capita living space, were determinants for empty-nest couple willingness for institutionalisation. Age, number of children and self-reported health status were found to be associated factors for willingness among non-empty nesters.ConclusionsThe government should pay more attention to institutional care in rural areas where there is still a gap in elder care compared with that in urban areas. Targeted policies should be made for different types of seniors to offer appropriate institutional care.

Abstract:

ObjectiveTo compare loneliness, depressive symptoms and major depressive episodes between empty-nest and not-empty-nest older adults in rural areas of Liuyang city, Hunan, China.MethodsA cross-sectional multi-stage random cluster survey was conducted from November 2011 to April 2012 in Liuyang, China. A total of 839 rural older residents aged 60 or above completed the survey (response rate 97.6%). In line with the definition of empty nest, 25 participants who had no children were excluded from the study, while the remaining 814 elderly adults with at least one child were included for analysis. Loneliness and depressive symptoms in rural elderly parents were assessed using the short-form UCLA Loneliness Scale (ULS-6) and the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS). Major depressive episodes were diagnosed using the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV (SCID-I).ResultsSignificant differences were found between empty-nest and not-empty-nest older adults regarding loneliness (16.19±3.90 vs. 12.87±3.02, Cohen’s d=0.97), depressive symptoms (8.50±6.26 vs. 6.92±5.19, Cohen’s d=0.28) and the prevalence of major depressive episodes (10.1% vs. 4.6%) (all p<0.05). After controlling for demographic characteristics and physical disease, the differences in loneliness, depressive symptoms and major depressive episodes remained significant. Path analysis showed that loneliness mediated the relationship between empty-nest syndrome and depressive symptoms and major depressive episodes.ConclusionLoneliness and depression are more severe among empty-nest than not-empty-nest rural elderly adults. Loneliness was a mediating variable between empty-nest syndrome and depression.

Abstract:

One of the crisis phases in families entering the middle age phase is the feeling of losing their role in raising children and feeling empty because the children no longer live in the same house. This term is known as empty nest syndrome. Self-acceptance and emotional regulation play an essential role in the impact of empty nest syndrome experienced by older adults. This research aims to prove the further impact of self-acceptance and emotional regulation on the experience of empty nest syndrome in older adults. The self-acceptance scale, emotional regulation scale, and empty nest syndrome scale were adapted by the author. The research respondents were 30 older people at the Siti Anna Bangka Belitung Retirement Home. The sampling technique uses purposive sampling. From the results of multiple linear regression analysis, it is known that self-acceptance and emotional regulation are related to empty nest syndrome, and simultaneously, self-acceptance, emotional regulation, and empty nest syndrome are significantly associated with each other.

Abstract:

Objective: To understand the empty-nest elderly situation and their cognitive function in China, and to investigate the impact of empty-nest on the cognitive function of elderly people in China, to effectively delay cognitive decline and improve the cognitive health of the elderly. Methods: This study used data from the 2020 China Longitudinal Aging Social Survey (CLASS) to analyze the empty-nest of elderly people in China, and measured their cognitive function using the Simple Cognitive Function Scale, analyzed the effect of empty-nest on cognitive function in elderly people using OLS, and explored the differences in cognitive function of different populations. Results: 11,398 people were included in the research, including 6,899 empty-nesters and 4,499 non-empty-nesters. It was found that there was a significant promotion effect of empty-nest on the cognitive function of the elderly (β=0.609, P<0.01); and the cognitive function of empty-nest elderly was better than non-empty-nested elderly in all dimensions (P<0.01). Conclusions: There is a significant promotion effect of empty-nest on the cognitive function of the elderly, and all dimensions of the cognitive function of empty-nested elderly are better than those of non-empty-nested elderly; there is a difference in the effect of age and social participation on the cognitive function of empty-nest of the elderly; in addition, the place of residence of the elderly and the social participation have different influences on the different dimensions of the cognitive ability. Establishing the concept of lifelong learning for the elderly and stimulating their interest in lifelong learning are conducive to slowing down cognitive decline in the elderly population and contributing to active aging.

Abstract:

Objectives: This paper reports on the first study in China that used nationally representative data to compare mental health and depressive feeling between empty-nest and non-empty-nest elderly people (over 60 years old), and examine whether the health disparities (if any) can be explained by differences in family, emotional, housework, and economic support. Methods: We used the 2010 China General Social Survey and multivariate regression models to examine mental health and depressive feeling of 556 non-empty-nest and 210 empty-nest elderly people in China. Results: After controlling for various socio-demographic characteristics, although the empty-nest elderly were significantly more likely to report depressive feeling and poor mental health than non-empty-nest elderly, the difference was only statistically significant for depressive feeling. Importantly, the disparity in both depressive feeling and mental health can be mediated by differences in family economic support and household economic pressure. Conclusions: Our results highlight the risks of depressive feeling arising from the empty-nest living arrangement of elderly people and suggest that a poorer economic situation may result from decreased mental health. Drawing upon these results, future public policies aimed at improving mental health of empty-nest elderly may need to be more targeted to improve their economic conditions such as ameliorating pension and social welfare system shortcomings.

Abstract:

With the aging of the social population structure, the number of empty-nesters is also increasing. Therefore, it is necessary to manage empty-nesters with data mining technology. This paper proposed an empty-nest power user identification and power consumption management method based on data mining. Firstly, an empty-nest user identification algorithm based on weighted random forest was proposed. Compared with similar algorithms, the results indicate that the performance of the algorithm is the best, and the identification accuracy of empty-nest users is 74.2%. Then a method for analyzing the electricity consumption behavior of empty-nest users based on fusion clustering index adaptive cosine K-means was proposed, which can adaptively select the optimal number of clusters. Compared with similar algorithms, the algorithm has the shortest running time, the smallest Sum of the Squared Error (SSE), and the largest mean distance between clusters (MDC), which are 3.4281 s, 31.6591 and 13.9513, respectively. Finally, an anomaly detection model with an Auto-regressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) algorithm and an isolated forest algorithm was established. The case analysis shows that the recognition accuracy of abnormal electricity consumption for empty-nest users was 86%. The results indicate that the model can effectively detect the abnormal behavior of empty-nest power users and help the power department to better serve empty-nest users.

Abstract:

Empty nest syndrome is often experienced by women, especially in nuclear families. Empty nest syndromes are experienced by old age at the time when the cubs last married or left home. The phenomenon of empty nest syndrome is widely experienced by women of advanced age with various diverse forms. This study aims to study the risk factors associated with empty nest syndrome in older women in the Puskesmas l Kembaran Working Area of Banyumas Regency in 2014. This type of research is a quantitative study using a cross-sectional approach with a population of 184 older women. The analysis used is Chi-Square and Logistic Regression. The results showed that the age of older women who experienced empty nest syndrome (63.6%), in the category of elderly old (57.6%), basic education (77.7%), non-work (58.7%) and social activities (93.5%). The results of the Chi-square test obtained variables related to the empty nest syndrome were self-concept (p-value = 0.016), communication with children (p-value = 0.027), and communication with partners (p-value- 0.026). Variables that are not related to the incidence of empty nest syndrome are age (p-value = 0.368), education (p-value = 0.834), occupation (p-value = 0.957) and social activities (p-value = 0.935). According to the logistic regression test results, self-concept is the most dominant variable associated with the empty nest syndrome (p = 0.020. OR = 2.103). The conclusion of the self-concept research is the variable most related to the empty nest syndrome. It is recommended that older women need to increase their social activities. Children should often visit parents or contact them by phone, and posyandu cadres explain the importance of social interaction in posyandu activities for the elderly.

Abstract:

In order to explore the correlation between the loneliness of empty-nest elderly individuals and successful aging, the study analyzes the influencing factors, and proposes coping strategies, providing a reference for promoting successful aging among empty-nest seniors. This study used a convenience sampling method to select 402 empty nesters with varying ages, educational backgrounds, marital statuses, and other characteristics as the subjects for the survey. An anonymous survey and statistical analysis were conducted using a general information questionnaire, the Chinese version of the Successful Aging Scale, and the Loneliness Scale. The overall score for successful aging among empty-nest elderly individuals with different characteristics is 31.72±10.85. Among these, educational level, occupation, social activities, health check-up status, and feelings of loneliness are the main influencing factors for successful aging in empty-nest elderly individuals (P < 0.05). The successful aging status of empty-nest elderly individuals is relatively low. It is advised to approach this issue from both physical and psychological aspects. By enhancing self-exercise, scheduling regular health check-ups, maintaining a balanced diet, and implementing relevant health education and psychological crisis intervention measures, we can reduce feelings of loneliness and strengthen their psychological resilience, thereby improving the successful aging of empty-nest elderly individuals.

Abstract:

Mary Gavell’s The swing is about an aging mother who suffers from ‘empty nest syndrome’. This paper analyzes the novel from the perspective of feminism, argues that the direct causes of her ‘empty nest syndrome’ are her estranged relationship with her husband, son and friends. And the underlying cause of her ‘empty nest syndrome’ is that she is oppressed in the patriarchal society which restricts her to the role of mother and wife. In the patriarchal society, women rely too much on the relationship with their husband and son for their happiness, and thus lose their real ‘self’, and become invisible. In order to cure the ‘empty nest syndrome’, old women should pull themselves out of the sole role of mother and wife in the family, build their own ‘selves’ and set up connections with friends outside the family.

Abstract:

This study aimed to explore the health service needs of empty nest families from a household perspective. A multistage random sampling strategy was conducted to select 1606 individuals in 803 empty nest households in this study. A questionnaire was used to ask each individual about their health service needs in each household. The consistency rate was calculated based on their consistent answers to the questionnaire. We used a collective household model to analyze individuals’ public health service needs on the family level. According to the results, individuals’ consistency rates of health service needs in empty nest households, such as diagnosis and treatment service (H1), chronic disease management service (H2), telemedicine care (H3), physical examination service (H4), health education service (H5), mental healthcare (H6), and traditional Chinese medicine service (H7) were 40.30%, 89.13%, 98.85%, 58.93%, 57.95%, 72.84%, and 63.40%, respectively. Therefore, family-level health service needs could be studied from a family level. Health service needs of H1, H3, H4, H5, and H7 for individuals in empty nest households have significant correlations with each other (r = 0.404, 0.177, 0.286, 0.265, 0.220, p < 0.001). This will be helpful for health management in primary care in rural China; the concordance will alleviate the pressure of primary care and increase the effectiveness of doctor–patient communication. Health service needs in empty nest households who took individuals’ public needs as household needs (n = 746) included the H4 (43.3%) and H5 (24.9%) and were always with a male householder (94.0%) or at least one had chronic diseases (82.4%). Health service needs in empty nest households that considered one member’s needs as household needs (n = 46) included the H1 (56.5%), H4 (65.2%), H5 (63.0%), and H7 (45.7%), and the member would be the householder of the family (90.5%) or had a disease within two weeks (100.0%). In conclusion, family members’ roles and health status play an important role in health service needs in empty nest households. Additionally, physical examination and health education services are the two health services that are most needed by empty nest households, and are suitable for delivering within a household unit.

Abstract:

Previous work has shown that laboratory rats preferred to use nest-boxes and nesting materials rather than empty parts of the cage. In preference tests, they chose opaque or semi-opaque nest-boxes and long strips of soft paper nesting material. Choice tests to demonstrate a preference between nest-boxes and nesting material were not possible because nesting materials were carried into the nest-boxes. Furthermore, preference tests did not show how important these items were to the animals. Accordingly, operant tests were conducted, in which the rats had to lift a weighted door in order to gain access to an empty cage, or one containing a nest-box, nesting material or both items. By progressively increasing the weight of the door in subsequent trials, it was shown that the rats would carry out more work to reach a nest-box, with or without nesting material, than to reach an empty cage.

Abstract:

A vida adulta dos filhos demanda, em geral, seu afastamento para estudar, trabalhar, morar sozinhos ou, contrair um matrimônio. Essa separação, depois de tantos anos juntos com os progenitores, pode causar tristeza e sensação de vazio, sobretudo nas mães, o que pode caracterizar a síndrome do ninho vazio (SNV) que, por sua vez, poderá causar grande impacto em vários aspectos da vida dessas mães. O objetivo deste artigo é discutir o impacto da SNV na saúde emocional das mães, com ênfase nos fatores mais importantes. A metodologia definida foi uma pesquisa bibliográfica, de cunho qualitativo, em forma de revisão de textos. A síndrome do ninho vazio é reconhecida por sintomas de depressão, como consumo de álcool e comportamentos estranhos, em mães cujos filhos saíram de casa. Fatores como aposentadoria, cultura familiar e preparo para a independência dos filhos também influenciam. A melhor recomendação para lidar com essa fase de difícil transição é a busca por ajuda profissional. Em síntese, a SNV é menos prevalente em culturas onde a separação dos filhos é comum e aceita, mas persiste em sociedades onde as mulheres são majoritariamente responsáveis pela criação dos filhos, podendo resultar em sentimentos de solidão e depressão mesmo após a partida dos filhos.

Abstract Background China has the world’s largest elderly population and an increasing number of empty-nest elderly. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the Self-Mutual-Group model on social support of the empty-nest elderly, thus providing reference for improving their quality of life. Methods A intervention study was conducted between October 2016 and May 2017 at six communities in Taiyuan, Shanxi Province, China. A total of 350 empty-nest elderly aged 60–88 years were randomly assigned in the intervention group (n = 167) with a 7-month SMG-based intervention or to a control group (n = 183) with no intervention. The social support of the participating elderly (n = 350) was assessed by the Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS) at the baseline and 7 months later, respectively. Results A 7-month follow-up showed an increasing mean scores of SSRS, objective support, subjective support and support utilization of the intervention group, and reached statistical significance (P &lt; 0.05). Conclusions The Self-Mutual-Group model was considered to be a positive intervention and was effective in increasing social support among the empty-nest elderly. Furthermore, future research should extend the intervention period and introduce multi-point measurement to better evaluate the intervention process and outcomes.

Abstract:

Middle adulthood will experience a phase when children have entered the adult age stage and leave home to get married, work, or continue their education. This phase makes parents, especially mothers, sad and feel lonely because they have not been able to accept the departure of their children, so they experience empty nest syndrome. This study aims to determine the description of adjustment in housewives who experience empty nest syndrome. The method in this research uses qualitative research methods with a case study approach. The subjects of this research were three middle adults who played the role of housewives with an age range of 50-58 years. Data collection was carried out through a process of interviews, observation and documentation. The results of the research showed that the three subjects experienced the characteristics of empty nest syndrome and a picture of adjustment according to the conditions that affected each subject. The three subjects carried out household activities as usual and added new hobbies as a way to control themselves with the empty nest situation they faced. All three subjects had people closest to them who provided support so that they were able to adjust to the departure of their children from home. The conclusion from the research results is that there were 3 research subjects, namely Mrs. S, Mrs. R and Mrs. N who experienced the characteristics of empty nest syndrome and a description of their adjustment according to the conditions that affected each subject. The three subjects carried out household activities as usual and added new hobbies as a way to control themselves with the empty nest situation they faced. All three subjects had people closest to them who provided support so that they were able to adjust to the departure of their children from home.

Abstract:

China’s rapid modernization has resulted to significant shifts in its social, cultural, and economic makeup. Specifically, its population is ageing that threatens their economic growth trajectories. Because the tradition of “raise children against ageing” still has influence in Chinese society, the country is facing the issue of covering elderly care costs while ensuring continued support for everyone. Given China’s economic growth, we explore on how the needs of the elderly in empty nest families be fulfilled, particularly in Wenzhou where elderly population in empty nest families has been increasing. While both government and families demonstrate the need to care for the elderly by providing both tangible and intangible needs, survey results revealed that most elderlies in empty nest families in Wenzhou are satisfied living at home in their old age as long as they can still attend to themselves and can still find ways to satisfy their needs despite their age. These needs include continuing education, health consultations and assistance, and outpatient treatment. Knowing the specific needs of the elderlies in empty nest families allows government and families to direct resources on their actual needs that matter most rather than on perceived needs.

Abstract:

Currently, the number of empty-nest elders in China is rapidly increasing, and their overall health situation is not optimistic. The Chinese government has developed a series of policies to promote the community medical-nursing combined model to meet the health and pension care needs of elderly individuals. The demand for community medical-nursing combined services among empty-nest elders plays a decisive role in providing these services and must be fully recognized before these services are offered. However, only a few quantitative studies have focused on the demand for community medical-nursing combined services, and these studies failed to capture the complexity and dynamic nature of this demand. To address this research gap, this study innovatively conducted a descriptive and qualitative study to explore the demand for these services. Following the principle of data saturation, 14 empty-nest elders from communities in Wuhan, Hubei Province, were recruited using the purposive sampling method. Semistructured interviews were used to collect qualitative data. The inductive content analysis approach was used to analyze the data. The results revealed that Chinese empty-nesters’ demand for community medical-nursing combined services was diverse and specific and comprised three themes (basic elderly care services, medical and nursing services, and psychospiritual support services), with fifteen subthemes. This study provides insights into the unique demand and implementation strategies for community medical-nursing services among empty-nest elders in China. Recommendations to enhance the intelligent elderly care system, infrastructure construction, and elderly care talent in the future provision of services for this particular group of people are provided.

Abstract:

This study aims to achieve a better understanding of the later stages of the family life cycle by exploring couples' marital quality during the empty-nest years of their relationships, using the actor–partner interdependence mediation model. The empty nest is the family stage that begins with the departure of children from home. In the hypothesized model of marital quality, husbands' and wives' satisfaction at having raised successful children serve as predictor variables, whereas their levels of perceived stress act as mediators. A sample of 344 participants, forming 172 heterosexual couples, participated in the study. The results of path analyses indicated that the model provided an acceptable fit for the data. Closer examination suggested that wives' and husbands' perceived stress fully mediate the relationships between husbands' tendency to view their children as successful adults and both spouses' marital quality. The article discusses interdependence and gender differences between spouses concerning their empty-nest experience.

Abstract:

There are multiple dimensions of deficiencies in elderly care services for rural empty-nest elderly in China, necessitating the intervention of social organizations. Social organizations possess various advantages in participating in rural elderly care services, reflecting their importance and necessity in the governance of service poverty from the perspectives of governance concepts, governance subjects, and governance mechanisms. Combining the theory of collaborative governance and based on service cases of a social work agency in County S, Jiangxi Province, this study explores the collaborative mechanisms and governance effectiveness of the government, social organizations, villages, and social forces in the governance of service poverty for empty-nest elderly. It summarizes shortcomings, proposes countermeasures, and improves the multi-subject collaborative governance model for rural empty-nest elderly care services, which consists of government leadership, social organizations as operating entities, villages, volunteers, and other forces, aiming to promote the experience of the case to other underdeveloped areas.
