大多数女性文学都集中在女性身上，她们传统上扮演着女性角色。然而，需要更多的研究来澄清性别对照顾者/患者心理结局的影响的混合证据，特别是在晚期癌症背景下。在本文中，我们研究了照顾者的压力，负担，焦虑，抑郁和应对方式的性别差异，以及照顾者的性别如何影响晚期癌症患者的预后。88例晚期癌症患者及其护理人员完成了心理社会调查。所有夫妇都是异性恋，大多数照顾者是妇女（71.6%）。女性照顾者报告的感知压力，抑郁，焦虑和社会紧张的水平显着高于男性照顾者，和男性照顾者的女性患者更有可能使用社会支持作为一种应对方式相比，男性照顾者的男性患者。这些发现突出了男性和女性照顾者的需求和心理健康之间的潜在差异。
Most caregiving literature has focused on women, who have traditionally taken on caregiving roles. However, more research is needed to clarify the mixed evidence regarding the impact of gender on caregiver/patient psychological outcomes, especially in an advanced cancer context. In this paper, we examine gender differences in caregiver stress, burden, anxiety, depression, and coping styles, as well as how caregiver gender impacts patient outcomes in the context of advanced cancer. Eighty-eight patients with advanced cancer and their caregivers completed psychosocial surveys. All couples were heterosexual and most caregivers were women (71.6%). Female caregivers reported significantly higher levels of perceived stress, depression, anxiety, and social strain compared with male caregivers, and female patients of male caregivers were more likely to use social support as a coping style compared with male patients of female caregivers. These findings highlight the potential differences between male and female caregivers’ needs and psychological health.
