Attitudes towards care-giving were examined in a sample of 129 supporters of elderly mentally infirm patients referred for psychogeriatric day care. As in previous studies, spouses felt more commitment to care-giving than other relatives. Commitment to care-giving was influenced by different factors in adult children and spouses, but consistently predicted subsequent decisions to institutionalize the dependant. Following institutionalization, most supporters felt relieved. They tended to perceive the decision to have been made by others, and to have resulted from a deterioration in their dependents' mental condition, rather than a failure of the care-giving relationship.
对129名被转介到老年精神科日间护理机构的老年精神疾病患者的支持者进行了关于护理态度的调查。与之前的研究一样，配偶比其他亲属对护理的投入感更强。成年子女和配偶对护理的投入受到不同因素的影响，但一致预测了随后将受抚养者送入机构的决定。机构安置后，大多数支持者感到如释重负。他们倾向于认为这个决定是由他人做出的，是由于受抚养者精神状况恶化导致的，而不是护理关系的失败。
