520 $a Caregivers completed the Family Hardiness Index (FHI), Caregiver Burden Scale (CBS), Family Crisis Oriented Personal Scale (F-COPES), Medical Outcome Scale (MOS), and the Life-3 Scale.
520 $a Caution is advised regarding findings and recommendations due to lack of a random sample and construct validity of instrumentation.
520 $a Irrespective of gender, caregivers who cared for women had statistically significant higher scores for family hardiness (t = $- $2 .76, p $\le$.01) and coping (t = $- $2 .71, p $\le$.01) than those who cared for men.
520 $a The contribution of family caregivers to the care of functionally impaired, cognitively intact homebound older adults is frequently enormous. The chronic, long-term illnesses of older adults have placed increased stress and burden on caregivers. The purpose of this research was to explore the relationships among selected demographics, family hardiness, burden, appraisal, coping, and well-being of family caregivers of functionally impaired, cognitively intact homebound older adults.
520 $a The theory of stress and coping and family hardiness theory were empirically tested to determine relationships among variables thought to be important in the older adult-caregiver dyad. A descriptive, nonexperimental correlational study was conducted. Data were collected in the home setting on 110 functionally impaired, cognitively intact adults and their primary caregivers.
520 $a Caregivers who scored low on the FHI and found the caregiving situation as both difficult and burdensome, had statistically significant higher appraisal scores for general stressfulness (r = $-$.31, p $\le$.001) and threat (r = $-$.58, p $\le$.001). Caregivers who received the most benefit from caregiving had statistically significant higher family hardiness scores (r =.34, p $\le$.001), and felt less stress (r = $-$.34, p $\le$.001) and threat (r = $-$.25, p $\le$.01). Family hardiness was found to be an important resistant resource to the burden and stress of family caregiving.
520 $a Sixty-one percent of the variance in caregiver well-being was accounted for by demographic and antecedent variables of family hardiness, caregiver and older adult age, dependency, caregiver gender, functional ability, caregiver education, family income level, burden, and tangible assistance, and the mediating variables of appraisal of benefit, stress, threat, and coping.
520 $a Results suggest the need for future research on caregivers of functionally impaired, cognitively intact older adults in the home setting. Policy initiatives focus on methods to support caregivers in the caregiving process and to develop effective programs to prevent/delay institutionalization.
