a

Nine observations lost due to missing data on outcome or main predictor (CG preparedness for CR death). Predictors are baseline values; outcome is first observation post-death.

b

Reference group is high school or less.

c

Reference group is spouse CG.

d

Reference group is non African American.

e

Number of ADLs with which CR has difficulty (range, 0–7).

ADL, activities of daily living; CES-D, Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression; CG, caregiver; CR, care recipient.
