Dementia is a disease that affects the elderly, and their caregivers, in many cases, are also elderly. Considering that caring for a person with dementia affects the health of caregivers, the aim of this study is to check the degree of psychological adjustment in a sample of 51 elderly family caregivers of people with dementia (31 women and 20 men), and test the relationship between their psychological adjustment and their physical, psychological and emotional health. The results show the importance of these characteristics in elderly caregivers and this is a further step to adapt psychological interventions to them. .. View More»
