Multicentric study examines resilience and social support's impact on quality of life in dementia caregivers, suggesting tailored interventions.

This research aims to explore the relationship between resilience, perceived social support, and quality of life in dementia caregivers.
317 family caregivers were interviewed using various scales to measure resilience, social support, burden, and quality of life.
The study used adjusted regression models to evaluate predictors and mediation analyses to assess pathways.
Mediation effects of resilience and social support through burden were analyzed.
Resilience significantly predicted both physical and psychological quality of life (QoL).
Perceived social support only predicted the psychological QoL domain.
Moderated mediation analysis showed resilience's effect on QoL was stronger among caregivers with low to moderate perceived social support.

Fernández‐Calvo et al. (2026) studied this question.
