Abstract

The current paper proposes and tests a model of caregiver empowerment among family caregivers of elderly people in Vietnam. Based on the theory of planned behavior, the study investigates the role of filial piety, work-caregiving conflict, and self-efficacy on intention to craft the caregiving job. Intention to craft is then expected to result in actual caregiving job crafting behaviors, with the later proposed to predict caregiver empowerment. Analysis of data collected from a two-wave survey of family caregivers confirms the proposed hypotheses. The results of the study serve as a reference for subsequent studies as well as practical interventions.
