Aim: The study aims to examine whether characteristics of patients with Acquired Brain Injury-ABI (time elapsed since injury, level of dependence and behavioral problems) and resilience factors of the caregiver predicted caregiver well-being (quality of life, anxiety,depression and positive aspects of caregiving).Methods: 78 voluntary family caregivers (75.6% female) of patients with ABI completed the Barthel Index, Head Behavior Injury Scale, Questionnaire of Resilience in Caregivers of Acquired Brain Injury, WHOQOL-BREF, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale,and Positive Aspects of Caregiving Scale. Correlation analysis and stepwise regression were carried out.Results: Time elapsed since injury showed a negative relationship with positive aspects of caregiving. On the other hand, care-recipients' behavioral problems showed significant associations with all caregiver variables: negatively with quality of life and positive aspects of caregiving, and positively with anxiety and depression. Regarding resilience, we found a positive relationship with quality of life and positive aspects of caregiving, and a negative association with anxiety and depression, showing better predictive power with depression.Conclusions: We confirm the relevance of developing multidisciplinary caregiver intervention programmes focused on positive ways to handle care-recipients' behavioral problems and developing positive coping skills, such as positive reinterpretation, acceptance and seeking social support, that may optimize caregiver resilience.

获得性脑损伤 (ABI) 患者照顾者的生活质量、心理健康和适应能力。

目的：该研究旨在检查获得性脑损伤-ABI 患者的特征（受伤后的时间、依赖程度和行为问题）和照顾者的弹性因素是否预测了照顾者的幸福感（生活质量、焦虑、抑郁和护理的积极方面。方法：78 名 ABI 患者的自愿家庭护理人员（75.6% 为女性）完成了 Barthel 指数、头部行为损伤量表、获得性脑损伤护理人员的复原力问卷、WHOQOL-BREF、医院焦虑和抑郁量表，以及护理量表的积极方面。进行了相关分析和逐步回归。结果：受伤后的时间与照顾的积极方面呈负相关。另一方面，被照顾者的 行为问题与所有照料者变量均显示出显着关联：与生活质量和照料的积极方面呈负相关，与焦虑和抑郁呈正相关。关于复原力，我们发现与生活质量和照料的积极方面呈正相关，与焦虑和抑郁呈负相关，显示出对抑郁症的更好预测能力。处理被看护者的行为问题并培养积极的应对技巧，例如积极的重新解释、接受和寻求社会支持，这可以优化看护者的适应能力。并积极应对焦虑和抑郁。关于复原力，我们发现与生活质量和照料的积极方面呈正相关，与焦虑和抑郁呈负相关，显示出对抑郁症的更好预测能力。处理被看护者的行为问题并培养积极的应对技巧，例如积极的重新解释、接受和寻求社会支持，这可以优化看护者的适应能力。并积极应对焦虑和抑郁。关于复原力，我们发现与生活质量和照料的积极方面呈正相关，与焦虑和抑郁呈负相关，显示出对抑郁症的更好预测能力。处理被看护者的行为问题并培养积极的应对技巧，例如积极的重新解释、接受和寻求社会支持，这可以优化看护者的适应能力。
