Background: The objective of the present study was to elucidate factors related to the contemplation of abuse toward care recipients among family caregivers in order to prevent elderly abuse within families. Methods: Questionnaires were distributed in September 2009 to a total of 1008 primary caregivers of users of visiting nursing stations in Prefecture X. Responses were obtained from 651 caregivers, and analyzed 308 among them. Multinomial logistic regression analysis was performed using two groups as dependent variables ("one type of abuse" vs. "more than one type" and the "none" group as the standard) and other variables as independent variables. Results: A total of 57.6% of caregivers were classified into the "none" group, 26.0% into the "one type" group, and 16.6% into the "multiple" group. Significant odds ratios for the "one type" group relative to the "none" group were as follows: care burden score, presence of cerebrovascular disease, and care-giving experience. In addition, significant odds ratios for the "multiple" group relative to the "none" group were as follows: care burden score, depression score, and positive view of care. Conclusion: Support for reducing care burden must be given to family caregivers who contemplate even one type of abuse.
