对未婚老人的女儿和儿媳进行纵向研究，并对数据进行分析，以确定照顾地位的两次转变对年轻一代女性的影响。一项过渡比较了一年后成为照顾者的非照顾者（“照顾者进入者”，n = 33）与同一时期继续照顾者（n = 56）和资深继续照顾者（n = 78）。第二次转变是随着时间1的新护理人员成为“新退伍军人”护理人员（n = 69），将他们与同年的“老退伍军人”护理人员（n = 189）进行比较。向照顾者过渡的标志是接受照顾者的能力下降和接受照顾的数量增加，但与继续不照顾者或资深照顾者相比，照顾者的生活质量在1年内没有显着变化。虽然纵向研究显示很少有积极的证据表明照顾的磨损模型，在抛弃照顾侵蚀心理健康的假设之前，方法上的改进是需要的。
Daughters and daughters-in-law of presently unmarried elders were studied longitudinally, and the data were analyzed to determine how two transitions in caregiving status affected the women of the younger generation. One transition compared noncaregivers who had become caregivers 1 year later ("caregiving entrants," n = 33) with continuing noncaregivers (n = 56) and with veteran continuing caregivers (n = 78) over the same period. The second transition followed Time 1 new caregivers as they became "new veteran" caregivers (n = 69), comparing them with "old veteran" caregivers (n = 189) over the same year. The transition to caregiving was marked by a decrease in the care receiver's competence and an increase in the amount of care received, but caregiving entrants' quality of life did not change significantly over 1 year, as compared with either continuing noncaregivers or veteran caregivers. Although longitudinal study shows little positive evidence for the wear-and-tear model of caregiving, methodological improvements are needed before discarding the hypothesis that caregiving erodes mental health.
