A study of 127 informal caregivers of Alzheimer's disease patients in Florida's Tampa Bay area was undertaken to determine the correlates of the five components of burden, as measured by the Cost of Care Index, a multidimensional measure of caregiving burden. Significant relationships between predictor variables and burden components suggest that global scores and measures of burden do not identify specific problem areas relative to the various components of burden.
