研究了残疾老年人的照顾者对照看过程的评价。一种基于压力理论的概念性方法表明，这种评估比传统的“照顾负担”更宽泛。使用传统项目和新项目构建了一个项目库，分别代表主观照护负担、照管满意度、照管影响、照管掌握程度和传统照管思想等维度。对一个暂缓研究项目中532名照顾者的反应进行成分分析，得出了与假设相符的因素；另一项研究中239名照顾者的相似因素反应的内容非常相似。一系列探索性和验证性因素分析的结果是接受主观负担、照看满意度和照看影响因素。作为综合条目得分，提供了他们心理测量质量的证据。
Caregivers of disabled older people were studied in terms of their appraisal of the caregiving process. A conceptual approach based on stress theory suggested that such appraisal was broader than the traditional term, "caregiving burden." An item pool was constructed using traditional and new items to represent dimensions of subjective caregiving burden, caregiving satisfaction, caregiving impact, caregiving mastery, and traditional caregiving ideology. Component analysis of responses of 532 caregivers in a respite research project yielded factors that corresponded with those hypothesized; the content of similar factored responses from 239 caregivers in another study was quite similar. A series of exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses resulted in acceptance of the subjective burden, caregiving satisfaction, and caregiving impact factors. Used as composite item scores, evidence of their psychometric quality is presented.
