“…In each of the three studies where post-hoc analyses were conducted, no differences between spouses and parents on measures of anxiety and depression emerged. As well, only four of the studies that found no differences between caregiver types (Anderson et al, 2009;Ponsford et al, 2003;Sady et al, 2010;Stebbins & Pakenham, 2001) indicated that a power analysis had been conducted to evaluate accurately potential differences between spouse and parent caregivers. Even in the 12 studies for which a comparison between the two groups was a primary aim, the samples were often not matched on key demographic factors and not adequately powered.…”

“…In three of the 16 studies for which a statistical comparison was conducted between spouses and parents (Knight et al, 1998;Perlesz et al, 2000;Sady et al, 2010), the analyses were conducted in a post-hoc manner. In each of the three studies where post-hoc analyses were conducted, no differences between spouses and parents on measures of anxiety and depression emerged.…”

“…The main statistical methods used for comparing spouses to parents on measures of anxiety and depression were means analyses (ANOVAs and t-tests) in nine studies (Anderson et al, 2009;Gillen et al, 1998;Knight et al, 1998;Kreutzer et al, 2009;Livingston et al, 1985a, b;Perlesz et al, 2000;Ponsford et al, 2003;Wells et al, 2005) and regression analyses in four studies (Livingston, 1987;Phelan et al, 2011;Sady et al, 2010;Stebbins & Pakenham, 2001).…”

“…Twelve of the 13 studies assessed anxiety using self-report measures. The selfreport measures consisted of the Brief Symptom Inventory Anxiety and Depression Scales in four studies (Anderson et al, 2009;Kreutzer et al, 2009;Sady et al, 2010;Stebbins & Pakenham, 2001), the Leeds Anxiety and Depression scale in four studies (Livingston, 1987;Ponsford, Olver, Ponsford, & Nelms, 2003;Livingston et al, 1985a;Livingston, Brooks, & Bond, 1985b), and the Symptoms Checklist in two studies (Gillen et al, 1998;Wells, Dywan, & Dumas, 2005). The Beck Depression Inventory (Perlesz et al, 2000), the Centre for Epidemiologic Studies -Depression scale (Knight et al, 1998), and the PROMIS Depression and Anxiety shortform scales (Phelan et al, 2011) were used in three respective studies.…”

A systematic review of studies which evaluated depression and anxiety in parent versus spouse caregivers of adults with traumatic brain injury (TBI) was conducted. Demographic variables of the TBI patients and caregivers, study design, measurement tools used, and outcomes reported were collected. Twenty-four studies met the inclusion criteria and were evaluated for methodological quality. While the majority of studies revealed no significant differences between caregiver types on measures of depression and/or anxiety, there was a great deal of variation in methodology and quality between the studies. Overall, high levels of caregiver distress were exposed, regardless of caregiver type (parent versus spouse). There is a need for qualitative and quantitative research designs in order to elucidate the factors that put caregivers at risk for depression and anxiety.

“…The FAD-GFS has an internal consistency of 0.92 and test-retest reliability of 0.71 (Epstein et al, 1983;Miller, Epstein, Bishop, & Keitner, 1985). The FAD-GFS has been used previously to explore family functioning of family members of individuals with ABI (Epstein-Lubow et al, 2009;Sady et al, 2010;Sander, Maestas, Sherer, Malec, & Nakase-Richardson, 2012). …”

Family members’ needs and experiences related to driving disruption following acquired brain injury

Family members often assume the caregiving role after an individual sustains an acquired brain injury (ABI). A mandated period of driving disruption following an ABI means that individuals will often rely heavily on family members for transport and emotional support.However, research on driving disruption has largely focused on the impact, assessment and rehabilitation of the individual with ABI, with little attention given to family members. In order to develop an understanding for approaches to support family members better, this thesis aimed to explore the needs and experiences of family members during driving disruption following an ABI.The first aim of the thesis was to gain a broader understanding of the issue by conducting a scoping review of the literature on family members' needs and experiences during driving disruption across all health conditions. The scoping review found that driving disruption is a stressful and complex issue with communication and emotional implications for family members. The review highlighted differences in experiences according to health condition, permanence of driving disruption and nature of the caregiver occupation, and identified the need for further research on the issue of driving disruption for family members of individuals with ABI.A prospective, mixed methods, longitudinal study, with a phenomenological approach was conducted with family members of individuals with ABI who were experiencing driving disruption. Recruitment was stratified according to time post-ABI to gain a range of perspectives. Data were collected from 15 family members at three time-points: recruitment to study, 3 and 6 months later. Self-report questionnaires measuring family members' quality of life and well-being were administered at the first time-point, and semistructured interviews were conducted at each time-point. All interviews incorporated the use of a map to elicit qualitative and quantitative data about family members' current travel patterns as a result of driving disruption. The data were analysed using different approaches in a series of four studies.The first two studies aimed to gain an in-depth understanding about the experiences of family members of individuals experiencing driving disruption due to ABI across the recovery continuum. Both studies examined the mixed methods cross-sectional data from the first time-point. The first study explored the differences in family members' experiences iii at the early (<1 year post-ABI) and later stages (>1 year post-ABI) using a mixed methods, phenomenological approach. Family members in the later group reported more challenges with greater intensity. These challenges included changes in everyday activities, the impact on their emotions, consequences for the whole family, and effects on physical health. The later group had lower ratings of health and well-being, and higher caregiver strain.The second study investigated the specific changes family members experienced in everyday activities with a focus on the impact of driving disru...
