Non- Kin Associators
Non-kin networks cover any nonfamilial contacts, such as
friends, acquaintances, neighbors, and colleagues. Non-kin
networks thus can include more types of social contacts
than friends only. A sole focus on non-kin relations might
generate new insights, also because non-kin networks differ
substantially from kin networks in their formation, provide
effective sources of companionship and affirmation, and are
subject to great heterogeneity among older adults. Even
though more recent efforts have been undertaken to
distinguish types exclusively for non-kin networks findings
on survival are still scarce.
Different Types of Social
Networks
There is little theorizing specifically on the topic of non-kin networks.
However, general theories and empirical findings suggest that social
networks vary in the degree of number and variation of supportive
relations. The Social Convoy Model (Kahn & Antonucci, 1980) proposes
that individuals are surrounded by a network of people, and the
composition and quality of this network is shaped throughout the life
course. Because gains and losses of social relations diverge among
individuals, a range of different types of social convoys exist in
adulthood. Those older adults succeeding to enhance both structural
(composition, such as number and variation of contacts) and functional
(quality, such as social support) aspects in their convoy are believed to
benefit most in terms of well-being.
A somewhat different prediction follows from Socioemotional
Selectivity Theory (Carstensen, 1993). According to this theory, with
age, adults increasingly invest in fewer but more useful relations, so
that their social networks become selective with a strong focus on
emotional needs. Here, the result of successfully managed social
contacts is a reduced, yet highly functional network. Much of the
support is homogeneous due to the increased selectivity with
respect to socioemotional resources. Despite their diverging
predictions regarding well-being, both theories argue that among
older adults substantially different types of networks may be
delineated based on function and structure.
