Brief Summary: The goal of this observational study is to understand how contextual individual-level and cultural factors influence the daily and long-term well-being of caregivers of relatives with memory problems or dementia The study focuses on caregivers from the Hispanic and Latino community The main questions it aims to answer are

What daily factors increase ie risk factors or decrease ie protective factors the daily odds of depression and anxiety symptoms reported by caregivers
How do these symptoms vary over time
Do variations in depression and anxiety symptoms predict distal health outcomes

Participants will

Complete an online baseline survey to understand their caregiving situation
Fill out daily surveys online for three weeks about their caregiving experiences and well-being
Complete two follow-up surveys along with daily surveys six and twelve months after the baseline survey

All the study information and surveys can be completed in English or Spanish based on the participants preference
Detailed Description: Hispanic and Latinoaxe HL family caregivers of older relatives living with memory problems or dementia often experience poor mental health due to the increased stress associated with caregiving The purpose of this study is to examine how contextual individual-level and cultural factors influence daily and long-term patterns of depression and anxiety symptoms among HL caregivers The investigators will collect data at multiple time points to understand their daily experiences and possible relationships among these factors

After initial contact potential participants will complete two eligibility surveys to determine if they are a good fit for the study If eligible they will receive a study information sheet outlining all procedures risks and benefits

The study will consist of

1 Baseline Survey A 45-minute survey to understand the caregiving situation of each participant
2 Daily Diaries After completing the baseline survey participants will fill out daily surveys for 21 days These 10-minute surveys will ask about their thoughts feelings and experiences of the day and will be emailed at 7 pm each night
3 Follow-Up Phases Participants will complete two follow-up phases one at six months and one at twelve months after the baseline survey Each phase includes an extended follow-up survey and another series of 21 daily diaries
