摘要
This study examines direct and indirect effects of an elder's impairment on the caregiving stress of employed sons and daughters. Using path analysis and decomposition of variance, it examines data provided by 1,585 employees who care for a parent or parent-in-law aged 60 or older, The direct effect of impairment on stress is stronger for cognitive-behavioral problems than it is for limitations in activities of daily living. Also, there are indirect effects of impairment on caregiver stress via the amount of caregiving. Significant effects also were found for time off from work to help the elder and for the elder's assistance to caregivers.
