The elder abuse draws an increasing concern as the elderly population grows rapidly, and increasing demands to provide long-term care to the impaired elderly are imposed on the families. This study compares Korean American elders' and their adult children's perceptions of possible elder abuse under care-giving situation, and related help-seeking behaviors using five scenarios developed by the author. The subjects consist of ten elders and their ten adult children including daughters-in-law who live in Los Angeles, the USA. Content analysis reveals very similar help-seeking behaviors of the two generations within the family despite the substanally generational difference towards the perceptions of elder abuse under care-giving situation. Mann-Whitney test shows a significant difference in the perceptions of elder abuse between the elderly and their adult children. It means that the elderly are substantially less likely to perceive a given situation as abusive than their adult children would. But there is no significant difference between the elderly and their adult children in their intended use of formal sources of help. Implications for gerontological social work practice and program development are discussed.

Cuttings with dormant cutting stocs in the polyethylen house with heating and water mist spray resulting 100 percent survival. And temperature and the relative humidity in which fraim during the cutting season were around $20{\sim}25^{\circ}C$ and 70-90% respectively and in case as more significant other of the 1% Level. 2. With five varieties tested, resulting 93.8 percent survival, The F. value is not significant. 3. With four organs of cutting stock tested resulting 57.5 percent survival on the cuttings with two knodes of dormant cutting stock served as better cutting stock than others. The F. value is more significantly 1% Level. 4. Dormand bud served as possible cutting stock was found to be 17.66 survival percentage. 5. Both earlier and later stage of germinated Leaves with soft wood cutting stock poor cuttings, and the degree of development of 15th June cutting stock was optimum stage on the principal factor governing the success of cutting in the soft wood cutting showing 54% survival.
