Abstract
Interviews were conducted with 332 intellectually intact residents in 54 nursing homes to study their patterns of interpersonal relationships with staff, other residents, and family and friends outside the home. Results indicate the importance of having a close friend for residents' participation in activities, life satisfaction, and nursing home satisfaction.
