Giriş: Kuşaklar arası dayanışma, nesiller arası sosyal açıdan bütünlük ya da çocukları büyüyüp kendi ailelerini oluşturmadan önce ebeveyn ile çocukları arasında kuşaklararası bütünlük olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Bu araştırmanın amacı yetişkin ebeveynlerde kuşaklar arasındaki dayanışmanın yaşam kalitesine etkilerini belirlemektir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Araştırmanın verileri 60 yaş ve üstü yaşlı ebeveynlerden toplanmıştır ve 216 yaşlı ebeveyn bu araştırmaya katılmıştır. Araştırmada kullanılan soru formu 3 bölümden oluşmaktadır. Birinci bölümde, yaş, cinsiyet, evlilik statüsü gibi demografik bilgiler bulunmaktadır. 2. bölümde yetişkin ebeveynlerin yaşam tatminlerini ölçmek amacıyla Diener ve arkadaşları tarafından geliştirilen Yaşam Tatmini ölçeği bulunmaktadır. 3. Bölümde Bengtson ve Schrader’in Nesiller Arası Dayanışma Ölçeğinin iki alt boyutu kullanılmıştır; Duygusal ve Fonksiyonel Dayanışma. Bulgular: Duygusal Dayanışma alt boyutunun ortalaması 54,08, Fonksiyonel Dayanışma alt boyutunun ortalaması 12,26, standardize edilmiş nesiller arası dayanışma ölçeğinin ortalaması 66,35, Yaşamdan Duyulan Tatmin ölçeğinin ortalaması ise 21,62 bulunmuştur.
