AB - This study aimed to examine the mediating effect of caregiving stress on the relationship between caregiving burden and depression among parents caring for adult children with developmental disabilities. To achieve this, a survey was conducted with 300 parents in the Chungbuk region from November 1 to November 30, 2023, and data from 200 responses were analyzed using SPSS 27.0 Process Macro 4.2. The results indicated that caregiving burden had a statistically significant positive effect on caregiving stress. Secondly, both caregiving burden and caregiving stress had statistically significant positive effects on depression, confirming that caregiving stress partially mediates the relationship between caregiving burden and depression. Additionally, the statistical significance of the mediating effect was verified through bootstrapping. Based on these findings, it is suggested that practical and policy efforts be made to alleviate the caregiving burden of parents caring for adult children with developmental disabilities, including emotional, physical, and economic support, as well as programs to help cope with caregiving stress to improve depressive symptoms.
