This study describes the health behaviors (alcohol consumption, exercise, sleep patterns, smoking, and weight maintenance) of a sample of older adult spouse caregivers (N = 233) and investigates the predictors of decreased self-care since caregiving began. Multiple regression results indicate that caregivers who experience greater developmental burden, report a greater number of depressive symptoms, perform a greater number of activities of daily living (ADL) tasks in caregiving and spend more hours in a day providing care, and who have lower self-efficacy for both self-care and spouse care are at greater risk for negative health behavior change. Results have implications for the identification of caregivers who may be particularly vulnerable to the negative health impact of caregiving.
