Master of Science<br>Department of Family Studies and Human Services<br>Rick J. Scheidt<br>In 2011, about 13 percent of the U.S. population, approximately 40 million people, were foreign born in the United States. Many of them participate in transnational caregiving, either as children supporting their parents in their country of origin or parents moving to the U.S. to help their children. This report examines research on transnational caregiving between immigrant adult children and their parents.

The first paper, a literature review, examines the role of the caregiver in helping the infant to establish a secure attachment relationship. Specifically, it explores whether the caregiver’s ability to understand the world from the infant’s perspective is conducive to the development of attachment secur

Abstract:

The increased incidence of chronic illness among the elderly makes long-term care a health concern as the population ages. Little is known about the impact of chronic confusion on the family. This study used a qualitative approach to look at the impact on the caregiving wife of caring for a chronically confused, elderly husband. Six wives whose elderly husbands experienced chronic confusion and who lived alone with their husband were interviewed using the phenomenological method described by Giorgi (1975). The findings indicated that there is a substantial impact when the husband depends on hi

Abstract:

Families providing informal care for loved ones face challenges with aging population expansion, shrinking families, and rising health care costs. Analysts predict a doubling of the aging population in the next half century, while concurrent decreasing birth rates propose a future mismatch of family caregiving resources. Similar trends are expected for the state of Vermont. With the majority of aging adults living in rural areas, an estimated 64,000 informal caregivers provide between 64 and 69 million hours of care annually, at an estimated market value of $683 million dollars.

Abstract:

Dementia is characterized as a progressive loss of brain function that results in the deterioration of many cognitive and physical abilities. Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia, causing steady declines in memory, functional abilities, and mental functioning. With a projected increase of degenerative illnesses, such as AD, family caregiving for individuals with the disease is also steadily increasing. Caring for an individual with AD has been characterized as a “career,” and within this career are a number of key transitions, including the onset of caregiving. Preexist

Abstract This study seeks to explore mental representations of caregiving, an area of attachment that has been the subject of relatively little research. The Caregiving Styles Questionnaire (CSQ) was developed as a cost effective and efficient alternative to lengthier caregiving interviews, and this study examines its internal and external validity. An initial item critique was used to examine underlying constructs of the measure.

It was hypothesized that due to their direct involvement in the caregiving process, caregivers would differ significantly from non-caregivers on a number of measures designed to evaluate adjustment.

Abstract:

Mothers care for their infants in various ways, many similar and others more unique, and are influenced by a variety of factors. Influences such as doctors' advice, attending prenatal and child development classes, reading books and magazines, and learning from personal experience contribute to the caregiving decisions mothers make. A type of parenting that focuses on the responsiveness and sensitivity of the mother to the infant's needs is known as natural parenting. Natural parenting involves caregiving practices that are expected to co-occur, such as breastfeeding and frequently maintain

Attachment theory holds that there exists a caregiving behavioural system underpinning the manner in which we provide care and support to close significant others. Evidence for this is found in caregiving for partner in romantic relationships (Feeney & Collins, 2004) and in caregiving for infants (George and Solomon, 1999). Researchers have also found that attachment styles are predictive of parenting (Rholes, Simpson, & Blakely, 1995). However, no attempts have been made to see how caregiving styles across different relational contexts are related, or indeed whether caregiving mediates the li
