Filial piety is an important cultural value in aging societies. However, mixed findings were identified regarding its influence on caregiver burden. The purpose of this meta-analysis was to clarify the relationships between filial concepts and caregiver burden.
Twelve databases on filial piety, filial obligation, and caregiver burden among adult children prior to January, 2020 were systematically cross-culturally reviewed.
Twelve studies were finalized for analysis. Fixed effect models indicated that stronger filial piety was significantly correlated (r = -.23) or associated with (β = -.27) less caregiver burden. However, no significant relationship between filial obligation and caregiver burden was revealed by random effect models.
Stronger filial piety may lessen caregiver burden. Therefore, filial piety should be assessed and supported in adult child caregivers, particularly in Eastern cultures. However, the concept of filial piety and its tools should be updated transculturally. PROSPERO Registration Number: CRD42020161969.
孝道是老龄化社会中的一项重要文化价值观。然而，关于其对照顾者负担的影响，研究结果不一。本荟萃分析的目的是阐明孝道观念与照顾者负担之间的关系。
对2020年1月之前关于成年子女孝道、孝顺义务和照顾者负担的12个数据库进行了系统的跨文化综述。
最终确定了12项研究进行分析。固定效应模型表明，更强的孝道与更少的照顾者负担显著相关（r = -0.23）或存在关联（β = -0.27）。然而，随机效应模型未揭示孝顺义务与照顾者负担之间存在显著关系。
更强的孝道可能减轻照顾者负担。因此，应对成年子女照顾者的孝道进行评估并给予支持，尤其是在东方文化中。然而，孝道观念及其衡量工具应进行跨文化更新。国际前瞻性系统评价注册库编号：CRD42020161969。
