| الوصف: | Informal caregivers of a family member who has been dementia diagnosed play a substantial personal, social, and economic role in the care of their family member. However, this type of caregiving can have detrimental effects on a caregiver’s psychological, financial, physical, social, and emotional well-being. This quantitative study addressed possible relationships between caregiver burden and quality of life, and caregiver burden and self-efficacy as measured by the Zarit Burden Interview, the World Health Organization Quality of Life-BREF, and the Caregiver Self-Efficacy Scale. The theory of transactional stress and the stress process model provided the theoretical foundation. The participants of this study were 219 caregivers born between the years 1946 and 1964 who were caring at least 20 hours per week for their family member who had been dementia diagnosed. Participants were recruited through social media. . Multiple linear regression analyses and correlation analyses were used to examine the possible relationships between the variables. Findings showed a significant negative correlation between caregiver burden and self-efficacy and a negative correlation between caregiver burden and total quality of life. The findings of this study could be used for positive social change by physicians, social workers, and therapists to help these caregivers with the remediation of burden, quality of life, and stress, improving their lives and the lives of those for which they care. |
