Abstract:
In this article, I illustrate lived experiences within my roles as caregiver, clinical social worker, and researcher. Empirical attention has focused on the emotional toll of caregiving and management of emotions as clinical social workers, however, little attention has been given to the impact emotions have on the researcher and how emotional awareness can be useful in the creation of knowledge. Using a personal reflexive account, I “out” myself as an emotionally aware caregiver, clinical social worker, and researcher. Finally, I provide examples of how to incorporate emotion into the research process.

Abstract:
Caregiving for a person with dementia or neurodegenerative disease is associated with increased rates of depression and anxiety. As the population ages and dementia prevalence increases worldwide, mental health problems related to dementia caregiving will become an even more pressing public health concern. In the present study, we assessed emotional empathy (physiological, behavioral, and self-reported emotional responses to a film depicting others suffering) and two measures of cognitive empathy (identifying the primary emotion experienced by another person and providing continuous ratings of the valence of another person’s changing emotions) in relation to mental health (standard questionnaires) in 78 caregivers of people with dementia or neurodegenerative disease. Greater emotional empathy (self-reported emotional responses) was associated with worse mental health even after accounting for known risk factors. Neither measure of cognitive empathy was associated with mental health. A relationship between high levels of emotional empathy and poor mental health in caregivers suggests possible risk indicators and intervention targets.

Abstract:
Introduction: Essential tremor (ET) is a common neurological disorder associated with functional impairment. Emerging evidence shows that some ET caregivers experience burden, but the unique interpersonal aspects of caregiving in the context of ET have not been fully examined. Research design: Open-ended questions were administered to 98 ET care-recipient–caregiver dyads. Responses were analyzed using conventional content analysis. Results: The unique visibility of disability and feelings of embarrassment that occur with ET prompts caregivers to be highly attuned to care-recipient emotions. Providing companionship, promoting independence, and reducing embarrassment are three themes we found that describe the ET caregiving experience. Discussion: Caregiving in ET often goes beyond aiding with activities of daily living; it has a significant emotional component especially in relation to independence and embarrassment. Future studies on caregiving in ET and conditions in which disability is visible should consider using a definition of caregiving that includes emotional caregiving.

Abstract:
Abstract Objectives: Despite the growing older African American population and its increasing needs for informal care, few caregiving studies have focused specifically on African Americans. This study aims to 1) identify demographic correlates of caregiving for older family members among African Americans and 2) identify caregiving and demographic correlates of emotional strain among African American caregivers. Method: Logistic regression and linear regression were based on the African American sub-sample of the 2015 Caregiving in the U.S. Survey (N=260). Demographic characteristics included age, gender, education, income, marital status, co-residence of care recipient in the caregiver’s home, relationship of care recipients to caregivers, and household size. Caregiving characteristics included hours of caregiving and whether respondents provide care for an older adult. Results: With respect to demographic correlates of family caregiving, older respondents were more likely to provide care for an older family member, and respondents were more likely to provide care to a parent/parent-in-law than to other relatives. Regarding emotional strain, age and household size were negatively associated with emotional strain, and hours of caregiving was positively associated with emotional strain. Discussion: This study identified demographic profiles of family caregiving and emotional strain. It also suggested the presence of unique risk and protective factors among older African American caregivers. Future research should test the underlying mechanisms between these factors and mental health outcomes for a better understanding of how caregiving strain can be attenuated.

Abstract:
This research investigates representations of emotion work and emotional labor in caregiving, in the medium of graphic novels. The study is based on a collection of six contemporary graphic novels that discuss the relationships between older adults who are suffering from dementia or Alzheimer’s and their family caregivers and professional caretakers. Family caregivers are caught in a complicated web of family relationships and new, emerging caregiving roles. We rely on thematic content analysis to identify the main forms of emotional agency, structural constraints and trade-offs in family and professional situations. Emotional agency in caregiving is portrayed as situated, though emerging from divergent definitions of the situations for caretakers and patients; it is embedded in the family system, which is contrastively portrayed with the procedural, less empathic medical institution, and also with the general mass media portrayal of old age. Graphic novels contribute to the emotional socialization of people anticipating situations of suffering, or caring for mental disorders associated with old age.

Abstract:
Abstract Research indicates that family caregivers of individuals living with dementia are at risk for high levels of stress, depression, physical health declines, and illness. The health and well-being of family caregivers is critically important to a long-term care system that is dependent on them to continue their caregiving role. In-depth individual and focus group interviews of 16 dementia caregivers were conducted to explore the emotional experiences of caregiving stress during transitions of individuals living with dementia to a higher level of care. Data were transcribed verbatim, checked for accuracy, and analyzed by at least two members of the research team. Line-by-line coding, memo writing, and constant comparative analyses were conducted until redundancy, when no new themes were discovered. Caregivers described various levels of feeling overwhelmed and symptom progression leading to the move to a nursing facility. Social isolation featured prominently, with caregivers describing a gradual erosion of their social network and socializing opportunities because of their caregiving responsibilities and the care recipient’s deteriorating symptoms. Caregivers described feeling isolated and stigmatized. One caregiver said, “…you’re being less invited, you’re being less involved. People don’t know how to deal with you…I don’t know if they become the pariah or I become the pariah.” At the same time, maintaining social connections and having help with caregiving featured prominently in the coping mechanisms described. The health of caregivers is equally as important as the person living with dementia, and programs, interventions, and resources should be a priority for supporting families through transitions.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Caregiving activities often lead to positive and negative appraisal for caregivers. Caregivers may limit social participation due to caregiving activities. Changes in level of activity participation could have profound consequences for caregiver’s valence. However, little is known about how activity participation could moderate the association between these caregiving appraisals and emotional valence. Data came from the National Study of Caregiving (Round 1 and 2), a nationally representative study of caregivers. Referencing Lawton’s two-factor model (1990), we examined both the level and changes in activity restriction interacting with positive and negative caregiving appraisals to predict both valence across two waves. Consistent with two factor models, findings revealed level and changes in activity restriction moderated the relationship between caregiving appraisal and outcomes for both valences. These findings highlight the role of activity restriction as a target to reduce negative valence and improve positive valence for caregivers.

Abstract:
Abstract Research has suggested that grandparents caring for grandchildren experience both psychological gains and loss. Less clear is what happens to these grandparents after they exit from the caregiving role. This study used the Health and Retirement Study (HRS) 2010 to 2014 data to examine the effects of transitioning out of caregiving on the psychological well-being of grandparents. Psychological well-being was measured by the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule. We defined caregiving grandparents as grandparents who provide 100+ hours of care per year to their grandchildren. In the first wave, 8,278 respondents in the HRS were identified as caregiving grandparents. Among them, 3,914 continued to be caregivers and 4,364 transitioned out of the caregiving role by indicating they are no longer providing care in the second wave. Grandparents who transitioned out of caregiving are more likely to be older in age, less educated and not married. Linear regression analysis was conducted to compare the two groups (continuing vs. exiting caregiving) on positive and negative affect, controlling for the first wave’s measures of the dependent variable, sociodemographic characteristics and health status of respondents. Results show that grandparents who continued caregiving had less decline in positive affect than grandparents who transitioned out of caregiving (b = -0.05, SE = 0.02, p<0.01), adjusting for covariates. But they were not significantly different in negative affect. These findings indicate that older adults may have fewer sources of joy after exiting the role of caregivers of their grandchildren.

Abstract:
A new study explores how professional knowledge are shaped in the relation between pedagogues and parents in kindergartens. It is well known that the care work of professional pedagogues holds emotional aspects as in integrated part of professional, pedagogical know-how. Opposed to what you might think, these emotional aspects of pedagogues’ work in this study seems not to be exclusively related to caregiving for children, on the contrary: Emotions also arises from relations with parents. This article examines this unexpected finding. How come that relations between professional pedagogues and kindergarten parents are carrying such a heavy, emotional load? And what are the implications of this for the pedagogical profession? The relevance of these questions is to expand the understanding of emotional demands in professional, pedagogical work in institutional caregiving practices.

Abstract:
The current research examined the influence of the emotional labor strategies of faking emotion and suppression of emotion, empowerment, and geriatric caregiving self-efficacy on the relationship between work stress and emotional exhaustion—one dimension of burnout—for a sample of nursing staff members employed in a state-level geriatric psychiatric hospital. The total sample included 79 participants, which included registered nurses (n = 15), licensed practical nurses (n = 23) , and human service care workers (n = 41) who completed the Stress in General scale (Stanton, Balzer, Smith, Parra, & Ironson, 2001), Maslach Burnout Inventory (Human Services Survey; Maslach, Jackson & Leiter, 1996), Discrete Emotions Emotional Labor Scale (Glomb & Tews, 2004), Psychological Empowerment Scale (Spreitzer, 1995), and Geriatric Nursing Self-efficacy Scale (Mackenzie & Peragine, 2003). The mean emotional exhaustion score for the sample fell in the moderate range of burnout. First, it was hypothesized that work stress and emotional labor strategies (i.e., faking emotion and suppression of emotion) would have positive relationships with the burnout domain of emotional exhaustion while empowerment and geriatric caregiving self-efficacy would have negative relationships with this outcome. Next, a series of regression analyses tested emotional labor (i.e., faking emotion and suppression of emotion), empowerment, and geriatric caregiving self-efficacy as moderators for the relationship between stress and burnout. Results indicated that study variables were all related to emotional exhaustion in the expected direction, although several relationships fell short of statistical significance. In addition, emotional labor was a significant predictor of emotional exhaustion, with suppression of emotion playing a larger role. There was no support for the potential moderating role of emotional labor or empowerment on the relationship between work stress and burnout. However, geriatric caregiving self-efficacy was a significant moderator of this relationship. More specifically, when staff reported high work stress, those who had low self-efficacy experienced the highest emotional exhaustion values. However, when self-efficacy was high for this group, their emotional exhaustion scores decreased. For this sample, higher levels of self-efficacy appeared to play a protective role from experiencing more emotional exhaustion when in a high stress condition.

Abstract:
Background. Derived from a psychoanalytic and object relations perspective, the development of the internal object through such processes! mechanisms as projection, identification, imitation, and projective identification is crucial to the development of a sense of self (how we view ourselves). Method. In elucidating the relationship between early environmental characteristics and adult mental health, a statistical approach was implemented using the National Comorbidity Survey: Baseline (NCS, 1990-1992; Kessler, 1994, 2002). In doing so, a number of structural equation models were presented to examine the aforementioned relationship. Notably, latent profile analysis (LP A), multinomiallogistic regression in a multiple group context, confirmatory factor analysis (CF A), finite mixture multinomial logistic regression in a multiple group context, and moderated mediation models in a multiple group context were used. Results. Both types of insecure attachment, insecure anxious-ambivalent and insecure anxious-avoidant may act as risk factors for the development of mental health disorders in adulthood; while secure attachment may play a more protective role in this relationship. All aspects of the caregiving environment are influential in creating a vulnerability that may probabilistically lead to the development of mental health disorders in adulthood. Experiencing maternal depression in childhood increased the likelihood of developing mental health disorders in adulthood. Compared to the most secure attachment profiles, extremely insecure individuals were more likely to endorse a range of quality of life indicators negatively. Important findings in relation to gender were highlighted, indicating that males are more likely to develop externalising and females are more likely to develop internalising disorders in adulthood. Conclusion. These findings suggest that the development of attachment insecurity may arise from the caregiving environment, and further highlight the long-term adverse effects of developing insecure attachment in relation to an individual's quality of life. In these terms, the consequences of un-mirrored affect during the earliest caregiving relationships may create a vulnerability to later mental health problems by not facilitating the development of adequate emotional regulatory capacities. Conclusions and key findings are discussed in relation to psychoanalytic theory. Finally, strengths, limitations, implications of the research and recommendations for future research were discussed.

Abstract:
Research has shown that the caregiving environment and the type of parent-child interactions that occur during development can have significant impact on future child outcomes for positive as well as negative outcomes (Ruffman, Slade, Devitt, & Crowe, 2006; Fonagy, Gergely, & Target, 2007). Language and emotional expressiveness are common themes that past research suggest are aspects of healthy and open parent-child interactions, and which may have associations with positive child outcomes (Carlson, Mandell, & Williams, 2004). Participants included 1359 children from the longitudinal NICHD Study of Early Child Care—variables were measured at 54 months, 3 rd , 4 th , and 6 th grades and at age 15. The early caregiving environment was found to predict 4 th grade language skills, but this relationship was not mediated by family emotional expressiveness in 3 rd grade. Family emotional expressiveness was found to predict 6 th grade social skills, but this was not mediated by 4 th grade language skills. Evidence of an indirect effect of language skills on social skills was found. Fifth grade language skills were not found to predict adolescent problem behavior, however, an overall significant indirect effect was found. Finally, family emotional expressiveness was found to predict adolescent problem behavior, and this relationship was partially mediated by 6th grade social skills. Direct, indirect, and total effects of the various predictors of adolescent problem behavior are discussed in the final chapter.

Full text
Abstract:
Expressed emotion (EE) is a measure of the family environment reflecting the amount of criticism and emotional over-involvement expressed by a key relative towards a family member with a disorder or impairment (Hooley, 2007). Patients with high EE relatives have a poorer illness prognosis than do patients with low EE relatives. Despite EE's well-established predictive validity, however, questions remain regarding why some family members express high EE attitudes while others do not. Based on indirect evidence from previous research, the current study tested whether religious and nonreligious coping and shame and guilt about having a relative with schizophrenia serve as predictors of EE. A sample of 72 family members of patients with schizophrenia completed an EE interview, along with questionnaires assessing situational nonreligious coping, religious coping, and self-conscious emotions. In line with hypotheses, results indicated that nonreligious coping predicted EE. Specifically, less use of adaptive emotion-focused coping predicted high EE. Also consistent with predictions, religious coping predicted high EE above and beyond nonreligious coping. Finally, higher levels of both shame and guilt about having a relative with schizophrenia predicted high EE. Results of the current study elucidate the EE construct and have implications for working with families of patients with schizophrenia.

Abstract:
Family caregivers are significant in the care of people with dementia, whilst the changes that occur as a result of dementia impact on both the person with dementia and family caregivers. As this caregiving is set within a significant social relationship, it is important to explore the factors within this social context that may both support and compromise the caregiver. The current thesis sought to explore the impact of social emotions and social identities within this caregiving context. Chapter 1 presents a systematic review of the literature exploring the self-conscious emotions of guilt and shame within the dementia family caregiver. It explores the emotional and cognitive experience of caring for a person with dementia within the context of this social relationship. Broadly, findings highlight the negative influence of the caregiver’s self-conscious emotions, on relationships and connection to the Person with Dementia (PwD) and others. Methodological limitations are outlined with regards the clarity of the results whilst clinical implications and suggestions for future research are discussed. Chapter 2 presents a qualitative research investigation exploring the construction of identity in dementia caregivers’ contributions to an online support forum. The analysis focuses on identities apparent within talk about the dementia caregiving relationship. This analysis reveals the construction of two prominent and interacting identities, that of ‘fragile self’ and ‘fighter self.’ The potential clinical implications of identity exploration for caregivers are discussed. Chapter 3 offers a reflective account of my experience of the research process in relation to my own social relationships.

Abstract:

Unpaid family caregivers of people with dementia are faced with a variety of physical, emotional and social stressors. A systematic review of the literature was compiled to summarize existing evidence regarding subjective burden, expressed emotion and psychological distress related to this category of caregiving and to build a multinational representation of these individuals that will facilitate in identifying areas of supportive intervention. A synthesis of 44 data sets that included 5,249 participants from 20 countries indicated that the majority of caregivers are experiencing depression and high levels of distress related to their caregiving role, and that a small number of caregivers are relying on coping strategies that may add to their distress. Results suggest an ongoing need for medical and psychology practitioners to be aware of appropriate supportive and mental health interventions to improve the quality of life for people with dementia and their family caregivers.

Abstract:
Raising a child with multiple special needs or disabilities is a time-consuming and difficult task that exceeds the usual parameters of parenting. This book examines all the facets of that task, from the better-known physical, financial, and emotional burdens to the previously invisible moral work involved. Drawing from narratives written by parents of children with a variety of special needs, academic research in ethics and disability, and personal experience in pediatrics, this book begins to recognize the moral consequences of providing long-term care for a child with complex needs. Using a virtue ethic framework based on Joan Tronto’s phases of care, it isolates the various tasks involved and evaluates the moral demands placed on the parent performing them. Raising a child with special needs requires an excess of attentiveness, responsibility, competence, and responsiveness, and demands from the parent a reassessment of their personal and social lives. In each phase, moral work must be done to become the sort of person who can perform the necessary caregiving. Some of the consequences are predictable, such as the emotional and physical burden of constant attentiveness and numerous unexpected responsibilities. But the need for competence, which drives an acquisition of medical knowledge, has not previously been analyzed. Nor has there been recognition of the enormous moral task of encouraging identity formation in a child with intellectual delays or autism. For a child who cannot attain independence, parents must continue to provide care and support into an uncertain future.

Abstract:
Chapter One offers a brief history of the rise in awareness of the vast numbers of informal, family caregivers caring for aged, demented, and impaired loved ones in the home. The importance of informal caregivers to the healthcare system, both financially and emotionally, emerged in studies exploring the numbers of home caregivers and the nature of their care work. Early studies also focused on the sense of burden caregivers experienced due to caregiving. Since the 1980s, caregiving studies have been a constant in research, and have become increasingly complex in the use of large data sets and advanced technology to study the number of caregivers, their characteristics and labors, and the outcomes of caregiving on their emotional and physical health. Few studies have focused solely on the experience of caregiving in African-American elder male caregivers, and in the way we accomplish here.

Abstract:
This chapter explores the question of whether infants and children produce prototypic emotional facial expressions in emotion-eliciting situations. Investigations of both infants and children are described. These include a natural observation study of a single infant during routine caregiving activities, a systematic experiment in which infants were presented with elicitors of fear and anger, a seminaturalistic experiment during which mothers and children discuss a topic of disagreement, and a study of children’s responses to a fear stimulus presented in the context of an Internet prank. Together these studies show that prototypic expressions are sometimes produced when it is unlikely that the corresponding emotion is experienced and often are not produced when the corresponding emotional experience seems likely. Overall findings suggest that the relationship between emotion and facial expression is more complex than portrayed within contemporary discrete emotion theories.

Abstract:
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) impacts greatly not only those who have the disease, but also family caregivers who provide the majority of care for their loved ones throughout the ALS disease trajectory. In the provision of this care, these family caregivers frequently experience significant threats to their own physical and mental health, and thus to their quality of life. The burden of caregiving can be high, distress is not uncommon, and support is needed to best address these issues. Despite the physical and emotional challenges faced by family caregivers, limited research has been directed at this caregiving phenomenon. The more health care providers understand the key elements of the ALS caregiving experience, the better equipped they will be to recognize the caregivers as not only co-providers of care, but as potential recipients of care to meet the unique physical and mental challenges of this caregiving population.

Since deaf and hard-of-hearing (DHH) children are more at risk for difficulties in their development than hearing children, the caregiving environment is an important context to enhance their development. This chapter describes different aspects of parent–child interactions that are related to the development of young DHH children. Parental language input, mental state language, and sensitivity are related to young DHH children’s language skills, social-emotional development, and executive functions. The chapter addresses parent-based interventions to promote DHH children’s linguistic, social-emotional, and cognitive development.

Abstract:
AbstractThe field of social robotics is fast developing and will have wide implications especially within health care, where much progress has been made towards the development of “companion robots.” Such robots provide therapeutic or monitoring assistance to patients with a range of disabilities over a long timeframe. Preliminary results show that such robots may be particularly beneficial for use with individuals who suffer from neurodegenerative pathologies. Treatment can be accorded around the clock and with a level of patience rarely found among human healthcare workers. Several elements are requisite for the effective deployment of companion robots. They must be able to detect human emotions and in turn mimic human emotional reactions as well as having an outward appearance that corresponds to human expectations about their caregiving role. This chapter presents laboratory findings on AI-systems that enable robots to recognize specific emotions and to adapt their behavior accordingly. Emotional perception by humans (how language and gestures are interpreted by us to grasp the emotional states of others) is being studied as a guide to programming robots so they can simulate emotions in their interactions with humans.

Abstract:
AbstractArticle 19 defines violence broadly to include all forms of harm, encompassing physical, mental and sexual violence as well as non-intentional forms of harm, such as neglect. As such, Article 19 articulates full respect for the human dignity and physical and personal integrity of children as rights-bearing individuals. This requires a paradigm shift of caregiving and protection away from the perception of children primarily as victims. Article 19 sets out a comprehensive prohibition on all forms of violence towards children and enjoins State Parties to take all form all measures available to enforce this right. This article summarizes the four main attributes of Article 19 as follows: (1) All violence towards children is prohibited, frequency or severity of harm need not be demonstrated and violence is defined broadly to encompass all forms of violence towards children, personal, social and institutional, including physical and emotional harm as well as neglect, maltreatment, sexual abuse, and abandonment; (2) the right protects children from harm from their parents and legal guardians as well as when they are in the care of proxy caregivers, including school officials, hospital staff, daycares, sports programs, as well as custodial settings and alternative care arrangements; (3) States are required to give effect to this right through all appropriate measures: legislative, administrative, social and educational; and finally the call for comprehensive measures to eradicate violence against children is reinforced by the final attribute (4) this attribute insists that the range of interventions required to give effect to Article 19 rights includes measures to ensure effective identification, reporting, investigation, and treatment of all forms of harm to children.
