The motivation to give and receive support across distance and share daily experiences with children and grandchildren abroad represents an important incentive to use Internet and more diversified technologies of communication.

“we argue that they are tools of crucial importance (Nedelcu 2009a), representing “an important part of the newly emerging and increasingly complex picture of transnational aging” (Baldassar et al. 2017).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
