74 Neurobehavioral Symptoms of Dementia as a Risk Factor for Poor Caregiver Sleep Quality
Objective:Caregivers to persons with dementia (PWD) consistently report lower sleep quality than non-caregiving controls. Low sleep quality, in addition to being unhealthy for the caregiver, may also impact the quality of care provided to the PWD. One factor that may contribute to poor sleep among caregivers is neurobehavioral symptoms (NBS) of the PWD. NBS, such as mood changes, lack of motivation, and disinhibition, are consistently rated as some of the most distressing symptoms by caregivers. Furthermore, they can include some symptoms related to sleep, such as nighttime wandering and REM sleep behaviors. Prior correlational research indicates a very strong association between NBS of the PWD and sleep quality of the caregiver. However, there are third variables, particularly demographics of the caregiver, which may better explain this relationship. When these variables are controlled in research, findings on the association between PWD NBS and caregiver sleep quality are mixed. Thus, we sought to investigate the relation between PWD NBS and caregiver sleep quality while controlling for caregiver demographics.Participants and Methods:Fifty caregivers to PWD completed a survey containing the Mild Behavioral Impairment Checklist as a measure of PWD NBS, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index as a measure of caregiver sleep quality, and caregiver demographics. The relationship between PWD NBS and caregiver sleep quality was assessed using hierarchical linear regression. First, we examined the relationship between caregiver demographics (age, gender, income) and caregiver sleep quality. Second, we added NBS to the model to assess for incremental predictive utility by examining change in R2.Results:A significant correlation was found between PWD NBS and caregiver sleep quality, with higher PWD NBS associated with worse caregiver sleep quality (r(48) = .34, p = .014). A hierarchal regression found that caregiver demographics explained a non-significant proportion of variance in reported caregiver sleep quality (F(3, 44) = 1.05, p = .382, R2 = .07). When PWD NBS was added in model two, there was a significant change in variance explained in the overall model (F(1,43) = 2.65, p = .046, AR2 = .13, R2 = .20). Across both models, PWD NBS was the only variable significantly associated with caregiver sleep quality (B = .08, p = .011).Conclusions:In line with previous studies, these results indicate a moderate relationship between PWD NBS and caregiver sleep quality. Furthermore, findings suggested that PWD NBS is a risk factor for poor caregiver sleep quality, above and beyond caregiver demographic characteristics. Individuals designing interventions aimed at improving caregiver sleep quality should consider including PWD NBS as an intervention target. Future research should replicate these findings in a longitudinal sample to further evaluate causality.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of the International Neuropsychological Society is the official journal of the International Neuropsychological Society, an organization of over 4,500 international members from a variety of disciplines. The Journal of the International Neuropsychological Society welcomes original, creative, high quality research papers covering all areas of neuropsychology. The focus of articles may be primarily experimental, applied, or clinical. Contributions will broadly reflect the interest of all areas of neuropsychology, including but not limited to: development of cognitive processes, brain-behavior relationships, adult and pediatric neuropsychology, neurobehavioral syndromes (such as aphasia or apraxia), and the interfaces of neuropsychology with related areas such as behavioral neurology, neuropsychiatry, genetics, and cognitive neuroscience. Papers that utilize behavioral, neuroimaging, and electrophysiological measures are appropriate.
To assure maximum flexibility and to promote diverse mechanisms of scholarly communication, the following formats are available in addition to a Regular Research Article: Brief Communication is a shorter research article; Rapid Communication is intended for "fast breaking" new work that does not yet justify a full length article and is placed on a fast review track; Case Report is a theoretically important and unique case study; Critical Review and Short Review are thoughtful considerations of topics of importance to neuropsychology and include meta-analyses; Dialogue provides a forum for publishing two distinct positions on controversial issues in a point-counterpoint format; Special Issue and Special Section consist of several articles linked thematically; Letter to the Editor responds to recent articles published in the Journal of the International Neuropsychological Society; and Book Review, which is considered but is no longer solicited.
