peer reviewed ; Mental health promotion policies are concerned by informal caregivers’ (ICs) suffering. What are the determinants of ICs’ caregiving-related esteem? Methods: (a) Crosssectional study. (b)62 Luxemburgish ICs of stroke-survivors 2-year-post-event. (c)Variables: oCaregiver Reaction Assessment’s (CRA) five dimensions: caregiving-related esteem (dependent variable), impact of caregiving on health, impact on finances, impact on schedule, lack of family support, oCaregiver Satisfaction with Community Services scale, oLeisure/ couple changes/social repercussions scores. (d) Regressions adjusted on ICs’ sex and age. (e)Multiple regression including significant factors. Findings: (a) Caregiving-related esteem is determined by social repercussions (p¼0.002**), changes in couples (p¼0.004**), impact on health (p¼0.004**) and three CSCS’ dimensions: confidence (p¼0.012*), problem management (p¼0.034*) and information about stroke (p¼0.040*). (b) ICs with high caregiving related esteem (R2 adjusted¼0.275) are weakly impacted on their own health ( ¼ 0.39; p¼0.011*) and on their couple life ( ¼ 0.36; p¼0.026*). Discussion: Support programs centred on ICs’ caregiving-related esteem can reinforce ICs’ health capability. ; F3R-INS-PFN-060606 > AVC Vivre au GD après ac. cérébral final > > BAUMANN Michèle
