A network approach to dementia care burden: Exploring relationships between objective and subjective indicators of care burden in caregivers of community‐dwelling people with dementia

“…Our results align with the sense of competence model by Vernooij‐Dassen et al., 15 where a higher sense of competence is associated with a lower caregiver burden. Stansfeld et al 14 .…”

“…Our results align with the sense of competence model by Vernooij-Dassen et al, 15 where a higher sense of competence is associated with a lower caregiver burden. Stansfeld et al 14 updated this model to include the impact of positive appraisal in caregiving, and found that positive caregiver outcomes and relationship quality enhanced sense of competence.…”

Development and psychometric properties of the caregiver sense of competence questionnaire for caregivers of people with multiple sclerosis (CareSoC-MS): a cross-sectional study

“…This is in line with previous research showing that, compared with males, being a female caregiver living with a person with a neurological disease predicted a lower SoC. 8 As the literature shows, women caregivers usually experience higher levels of physical distress and exhaustion/tiredness, and the majority of caring responsibilities taken by women suggests a link with gender role expectations. 42 Culturally, women’s expected roles are still marked with obligations to provide care, and prioritising the care provision over their own well-being is often normalised.…”

“…Caregivers were significantly different by sex only for the psychological well-being factor, with females reporting a lower level of SoC. This is in line with previous research showing that, compared with males, being a female caregiver living with a person with a neurological disease predicted a lower SoC 8. As the literature shows, women caregivers usually experience higher levels of physical distress and exhaustion/tiredness, and the majority of caring responsibilities taken by women suggests a link with gender role expectations 42.…”

Sense of Competence in a Dutch Sample of Informal Caregivers of Frontotemporal Dementia Patients

“…Emotions are the feelings the caregiver experienced with regard to the patient, attributions are the caregiver's interpretation of the patient's behaviour, and sacrifices are the losses of the caregiver's personal life while caring for the patient. VernooijDassen et al [9] also found 3 dimensions to underlie SC in a sample of Alzheimer's disease and multi-infarct dementia patients, satisfaction with the demented person as a recipient of care, satisfaction with one's own performance as a caregiver and consequences of involvement in care for the caregiver's personal life, which were reproduced by Scholte op Reimer et al [30] in a sample of care- givers of stroke patients. The latter dimension, consequences of involvement in care for the caregiver's personal life, is comparable to the sacrifice dimension we identified in FTD caregivers.…”
