Abstract
Studies on the role of the response class "relying on others" in coping with crises and problems in childhood, adolescence, early, middle, and late adulthood, and with situations like grief or dependency point to important psychological aspects in the social support process. These are related especially to the construct of trust which deserves more attention in Behavioral as well as in Social Gerontology.
