Overview

AI-generated summary, not a substitute for reading the source.

This quasi-experimental study compares a web-based Acceptance and Commitment Therapy intervention (CareACT) against standardized rehabilitation and voluntary caregiver support for family caregivers aged 60 and over. The research evaluates changes in depression, anxiety, quality of life, and psychological flexibility at baseline, four months, and ten months post-intervention among 149 participants. Results indicate that CareACT was superior to the other groups in reducing depression at four months, with no significant differences observed between groups at the ten-month mark.
