Popis:	Research indicates that caregiver burden is related to caregiver mood state. The current study investigated the relationship between caregiver burden and affect via the Caregiver Burden Inventory and the Profile of Mood States. The sample was comprised of 31 female caregivers of individuals with dementia. Regression analyses revealed that developmental burden predicted caregiver tension-anxiety, and along with time dependence burden (an inverse predictor), was predictive of caregiver depression-dejection. Social burden emerged as a predictor of caregiver anger-hostility and confusion-bewilderment, and in conjunction with physical burden it predicted caregiver fatigue-inertia. The current findings are reviewed with regard to treatment implications.
