Abstract:
A conceptual framework for understanding the meaning of intergenerational themes in reminiscence is presented. Theory and research on reminiscence and intergenerational mutuality are reviewed. Efforts of the elderly to come to terms with memories of their parents and their own children are illustrated. Implications for intervention are identified at different points of group development.
