Statistical results also indicated that among the social ties and social support variables included in this study, only the marital status and the perceived availability of the future support were significantly associated with the mental health among the respondents. It implies that marriage still factors centrally in the lives
of middle-aged and older adults. Those respondents who were sure that they would receive the needed help and support in the future were more positive about their old age support in the future and reported better mental health. Other variables used to tap social ties and social support being born in the current community
without migration experience, network size, receiving help from others were found to have no significant association with the respondent’s mental health status.Silverstein, Zhen, and Li (2006) have argued that sometimes the benefits from the reciprocity and support with others may be counterbalanced by the loss of self-efficacy that was implied by receiving support. With the rapid economic development and the in fluences from globalization, the old age support system is also changing its scenarios in China. So, further research on the complex dynamics of filial piety in currentera China is needed. Future research may need to examine the
specific roles and expectations in a supportive relationship to study the complex impact of mutual support for health.
