Abstract

ABSTRACT The aim of the current integrative review was to achieve a better understanding of the associations between the grandparent-grandchild relationship and early adult grandchildren’s psychological and health outcomes. The current article examines the grandparent’s role in view of different aspects of the grandparent-grandchild relationship by analyzing two themes that emerged in the reviewed studies: the general grandparent-grandchild relationship and the relationship with a grandparent with an impairment. Gaps in the research literature, implications for practice and directions for future research are discussed.
