Abstract

This article explores recent family changes in Japan focusing on changes in intergenerational coresidence. The study analyzed the frequency and determinants of coresidence between married and never-married children and their parents using three waves of National Family Research of Japan (NFRJ1998, 2003, 2008). Coresidence of married children with their parents (-in-law) somewhat decreased, whereas coresidence of never-married children with their parents significantly increased during the ten years. Logistic regression analyses showed that most of the determinants of parent–child coresidence remained stable during the decade, with some exceptions indicating changes in the coresidence pattern between a married son and his parents. The findings suggest that a new pattern of intergenerational coresidence has begun to emerge in recent years.
