Analysis of the Association Between Psychosocial Stressors and Depression Among Family Caregivers of Individuals With Young‐Onset Dementia and Late‐Onset Dementia: A Cross‐Sectional Study

The findings indicate differences between YOD and LOD caregivers in psychosocial stressors linked to depression. These findings underscore the necessity of multifaceted and adaptable support strategies tailored to the distinct characteristics of each group. Furthermore, over half of both caregiver groups exhibited depressive symptoms, with YOD caregivers demonstrating a particularly higher propensity for depression. These findings provide foundational evidence for developing effective support and interventions tailored to the specific stressors experienced by YOD and LOD caregivers to alleviate their depressive symptoms.
