The impact of parent-caring on the lives of 30 Caucasian women was studied using data from: 1) intensive interviews, 2) participant observations, and 3) the OARS Multidimensional Functional Assessment. Analysis of the qualitative data identified two caregiving modalities: 1) care provision and 2) care management. The social and behavioral precedents and consequences of entering the careprovider or manager role were identified. The costs of caregiving were much greater for providers than managers.
