Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The present study aimed to i) elucidate longitudinal changes regarding the level of depression among family caregivers who looked after community dwelling older people with disabilities; and ii) investigate factors which may cause the above-described depression and/or factors which may alleviate depression. It has been revealed that the level of depression did not change, i.e., the trait model; and that the family caregiver’s self-rated health and kinship may be factors which cause and alleviate the caregiver’s depression respectively.
