Abstract:
Study objectives were to compare differences in quality of life (QOL) and family quality of life (FQOL) between compound and noncompound caregivers and describe how career-related dimensions influence the global FQOL. Examination of survey data from 77 compound and 113 noncompound caregivers indicated that compound caregivers had lower QOL, global FQOL, and worse career outcomes than noncompound caregivers. Global FQOL was associated with greater career satisfaction, higher income, and noncompound caregiver type. For compound caregivers, global FQOL was associated with more career opportunities and positive perceptions of career stability. These findings have implications for supporting career pursuits of family caregivers.
