We explore the association between family caregiver depression and the quality of staff-family relationships, and we test burden as a mediator of this relationship. Using structural equation modeling, we used data from a representative sample of 932 family members from 20 nursing homes in Central New York to examine the association between staff-family relationship quality and family caregiver depression. We then tested family caregiver burden as a mediator of the relationship between staff-family relationship quality and family caregiver depression. Staff-family relationship quality, specifically perceived conflict with staff, is significantly associated with family caregiver depression. Further, caregiver burden mediates this relationship. Interventions to improve staff-family relationships may impact family caregiver depression by reducing the stress that family caregivers experience.
我们探究家庭照顾者抑郁与员工 - 家庭关系质量之间的关联，并检验负担作为这种关系的中介变量。运用结构方程模型，我们使用了来自纽约州中部20家养老院的932名家庭成员的代表性样本数据，以检验员工 - 家庭关系质量与家庭照顾者抑郁之间的关联。然后，我们检验了家庭照顾者负担作为员工 - 家庭关系质量与家庭照顾者抑郁之间关系的中介变量。员工 - 家庭关系质量，特别是感知到的与员工的冲突，与家庭照顾者抑郁显著相关。此外，照顾者负担介导了这种关系。改善员工 - 家庭关系的干预措施可能通过减轻家庭照顾者所经历的压力来影响家庭照顾者的抑郁状况。
