Do Religious Children Care More and Provide More Care for Older Parents? A Study of Filial Norms and Behaviors across Five Nations

We propose an explanation for the provision of attention and care to aged parents; we suggest a reason why the presence of young children could support rather than inhibit the provision of this care; and we provide an explanation as to why daughters are more often observed to provide attention and care to parents than sons.
