Variability in Daily Events and Mood of Family Caregivers to Cognitively Impaired Elders.

MaloneBeach, Eileen E.; And Others

International Journal of Aging & Human Development, v41 n2 p151-67 1995

Family caregivers to demented elders (n=43) kept 14-day diaries of caregiving activities, disruptive patient behaviors, and daily mood. Findings indicate that some caregivers are highly distressed by caregiving demands, some report moderate levels of distress, and others show no relationship between mood and daily events. (JPS)
