In these countries most long-term care is provided by the family. Caring for an older adult dependent may impact the caregiver&#8217;s health with negative consequences related to emotional health, especially depression and anxiety. Research conducted by our group within the topic <a href=\"https:\/\/cuidsalud.com\/en\/inv\/cuidadoras-y-cuidados-informales-y-familiares\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Family caregivers<\/a> has explored this phenomenon.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">The purpose of this study was to <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">analyze the multidimensional nature of obligation and the relations between each dimension of obligation and both anxiety and depression<\/span>.
