VAZQUEZ, Fernando L et al. The impact of decreased environmental reward in predicting depression severity in caregivers. Anal. Psicol. [online]. 2019, vol.35, n.3, pp.357-363.  Epub 30-Nov-2020. ISSN 1695-2294.  https://dx.doi.org/10.6018/analesps.35.3.329131.

Reward has not been examined as a predictor of depression in the caregiver population despite the high prevalence of depression. The aim of this study was to analyze reward as a predictor of the level of depression (no depression, subclinical depression, major depressive episode) in caregivers. Independent evaluators evaluated the socio-demographic variables of the caregiver and the care recipient, the care situation, reward, and depressive symptomatology through self-reports. Expert clinicians evaluated the prevalence of major depressive episodes using the SCID-5-CV in 592 caregivers (87.2% women, average age = 55.4 years). The average reward score was 28.1. Reward was lower in caregivers younger than 55 years old who belonged to the lower/lower-middle classes. Reward was higher in caregivers without depression than in those with subclinical depression or experiencing a major depressive episode. Reward was also higher in caregivers with subclinical depression versus those with a major depressive episode. Caregivers with higher reward had a lower probability of subclinical depression (adjusted OR = 0.78, 95% CI 0.75-0.83) and a major depressive episode (adjusted OR = 0.67, 95% CI 0.62-0.72). Reward was a protective factor against subclinical depression and a major depressive episode in caregivers.
