If men are from Mars and women are from Venus, how do they work together to make senior living decisions?

Decision-Making Styles and Senior Living Choices

The senior living decision is not one that can be taken lightly. Families often struggle with this, and it’s easy to see why: Not only do family dynamics play a very big role in the senior living decision, but there are also age and gender differences in decision-making styles. 

Of course, when we talk about age and gender differences in decision-making styles, we are talking about tendencies, not absolutes. But these observations go beyond simple stereotyping in that they have been well-verified through research.
