A scale consisting of 54 items was made ranging from the highest score, death of spouse, to the lowest score, change of resi dence. Of all the differences between this study and the studies in America, it was notable that, in Korea, higher stress scores were given, for children care concerns and problems with in-laws, while a lower score for retirement compared with the studies in America. Female showed higher scores than males and. responded particularly sensitively on the problems about marriage.
