Current Research Projects

Adaptive Interventions for At-Risk Caregivers.
Investigators: Steven H. Zarit, Principal investigator. Elia Femia, Co-PI. Carol Whitlatch, (Margaret Blenkner Research Institute at Benjamin Rose), Co-PI.

This study explores the development of a new strategy, adaptive intervention, for family caregivers. Adaptive interventions use a structured assessment to identify the specific risk factors for each caregiver and apply only those interventions specific to the risk factors found.

The current project will be conducted in two phases. In the first phase, we will develop and evaluate a theory-driven assessment tool that will identify risk factors and their cut-offs for assigning people to specific interventions. The second phase will be a small trial in which the assessment developed in Phase 1 will be used to assign people to treatment modules. We expect that by giving family caregivers intervention modules specific to their risk profile will improve outcomes. This research is funded by the National Institute of Mental Health (1 R34 MH073559-01).

The FAMILY CARES Study.
Investigators: Steven H. Zarit, Principal Investigator; Rick Greene, Co-PI (Department of Health and Senior Services, State of New Jersey); Mary Ann Parris Stephens, Co-PI (Kent State University); Elia Femia, Project Manager.

This study examines the benefits and drawbacks of adult day care for people with Alzheimer's disease and other dementing illnesses and their family caregivers. The focus is on how disruptive behavior might change as a result of involvement in structured day activity programs, and the implications of those changes for the primary family caregiver. This research was funded by the National Institute of Mental Health (1 RO1 MH590207)

The NONA Project.
Investigators: Gerdt Sundström, Principal Investigator (Gerontology Institute, Jönköping University, Jönköping, Sweden); Co PIs: Stig Berg, Boo Johansson, Bo Malmberg (all of the Gerontology Institute), and Steve Zarit.

This research explores the transition from independence to dependence in a population-based sample of people in their late 80s and early 90s. A theory based model of the disability process is used to guide the analysis of changes over time. We are also examining the responses of family and formal services to increased levels of disabilities. The goal of the study is to identify factors that may delay the onset of disability in very late life, as well as to learn more about the care received by the very old.

Psychosocial Predictors of Disability in the Oldest Old.
Investigators: Elizabeth Fauth, Principal Investigator, Stig Berg, Bo Malmberg, Gerdt Sundström (all of the Gerontology Institute, Jönköping University, Jönköping, Sweden), and Steve Zarit.

This project combines data from 4 longitudinal studies of the oldest-old to build a data base that will allow for a more thorough examination of patterns of stability and decline in functioning in very late life, as well as patterns of help from families and formal services.
