Associations of caregiving status and burden with (a) perceived general health and (b) physical and mental tiredness: Gazel Cohort Study, France, 2008.

Note. ZBI = Zarit Burden Interview. Mean values (bars are standard errors) from linear regression models (adjusted for age, gender, educational level, most recent occupation, retirement status, smoking status, alcohol consumption, and sports activity) are shown. For differences across noncaregivers and quartiles of caregivers, P < .001 for perceived general health and for physical and mental tiredness. Higher scores indicate poorer self-reported health. Solid line represents mental tiredness score. Dotted line represents physical tiredness score. Sample size was n = 10 687.
