Sección: ArtículosTítulo: Patterns of multiple caregiving and the influence on depressive symptoms among middle-aged and older adults in China / Xinyi Zhao... [et al.]Notas: Sumario: This article examines patterns of multiple caregiving assumed by middle-aged and older adults in China and their longitudinal impact on depressive symptoms. Using representative data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS), the study identifies different caregiving profiles that combine care for parents, spouses, and grandchildren. Through latent class analysis and regression models, the association between these caregiving patterns and changes in mental health over time is assessed. The results show that intensive spousal caregiving is associated with higher levels of depressive symptoms, whereas combined caregiving for parents and grandchildren does not present significant negative effects. The study provides relevant implications for social policies and support services for caregiversRegistros relacionados: En: European Journal of Ageing : social, behavioural and health perspectives. - Cham, Switzerland [etc.] : Springer International Publishing AG, 2021-. - 21/12/2026 Volumen 22 Número 2 - 2026 , 17 p.Materia / lugar / evento: Salud mentalPersonas mayoresDependenciaEnvejecimiento de la poblaciónPolítica socialChinaOtros autores: Zhao, XinyiSpringer NatureOtras clasificaciones: 931.2Derechos: In Copyright (InC)
