The home is the first and the oldest training ground where the child is mentored by parents, siblings and members of the extended family in which they exhibit different forms of behaviour which he observes and imitates. The home provides the initial training for the child and the parents act as models for their children since the process of socialization depends on both parents playing complementary roles in bringing up the child. Adolescents from father absent households manifest a number of internalizing and externalizing problem behaviour, including anxiety, interpersonal difficulties and low self-esteem.

Abstract

Exploring the impact of carer stressors and psychological inflexibility on depression and anxiety in family carers of people with dementia

This study aimed to explore the impact of carer stressors (neuropsychiatric symptoms of dementia, level of independence in activities of daily living, hours of caring per week), demographic factors (carer age, relationship with the person with dementia, dementia type, dementia severity, number of years since diagnosis and cohabitation status) and psychological inflexibility on depression and anxiety in family carers of people with dementia. Eighty-nine family carers with a mean age of 69.13 years old completed self-reported and interview-based questionnaires. Participants were primarily female family members aged 65 years or older looking after a person with severe Alzheimer's disease.
