The Correlation of Home Care With Family Caregiver Burden and Depressive Mood: An Examination of Moderating Functions
International Journal of Gerontology, 10/15/09

Chang H–J – The results indicated that home care can moderate the effects of instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) on caregiver depressive mood. It was unable to moderate the effects of activities of daily living (ADL) and cognitive deficit on depressive mood. It also failed to moderate the effects of ADL, IADL and cognitive deficit on caregiver burden. The lack of a moderating effect of home care on most interaction terms may be the result of a low rate of service use. Despite low utilization, its ability to mitigate the negative impact of IADL on depressive mood reaffirms the necessity to conceptualize formal care as a type of social support and to examine its moderating function.
