The objectives of the study were to identify the prevalence and the circumstances of abuse of the elderly in Canada. It focused on those elderly in Canada living in private dwellings, who represent about 91 percent of all elderly in Canada. It sought to examine factors contributing to conflict within the family, and the means by which individuals resolve or cope with conflict. In particular, it sought to examine in detail what researchers and caregivers have identified as the four major areas or categories of abuse: material abuse; chronic verbal aggression; physical violence; and neglect.
