520 $a This study was to evaluate the family caregiver experience using the ABC-X Model and data from the 2004 National Long-Term Care Survey in an effort to bridge the gap between caregiver research and practice. The impact of mediation is demonstrated through the progression of Model A, Model B, Model C, and Model D (Figures 1--4). Caregiver burdens of negative care receiver behavior, activities of daily living, and time spent caregiving will be used as predictor variables for caregiver stress. Caregiver stress is indicated by financial stress and emotional stress. It was hypothesized that the effect of caregiver stress on caregiver's perceived physical health and the effect of stress on life satisfaction would be mediated by coping behaviors and social support. However, mediation of these relationships was not supported.
520 $a The researcher also hypothesized that stress, coping behaviors, social support, physical health, and life satisfaction will differ based on characteristics of ethnicity, relationship to the care receiver, and gender. It was found that while model fit was similar for all subgroups, there were significant path coefficient differences indicating that overall, the caregiver experience has similar variables but that based on the caregiver's background characteristics, the caregiver experience is also unique. Implications are that programs should recognize these differences and address them in program evaluations and interventions with a focus on effective coping behaviors. It was recommended that future research continue to explore ways to bridge the gap between research and practice.
