Evaluation & the Health Professions 16 (2), 204–211. Primary use / Purpose: To assess perceived burden among people caring for others with disabilities. Background: This caregiver burden scale was developed to assess perceived burden among caregivers of family members with dementia. While everyone who is a caregiver will assist with tasks for their family member with dementia, our previous research found that burden was more than just the number or type of tasks for which the patient required assistance. By obtaining a measure of the caregivers' perceived burden associated with each of 15 possible tasks, we were able to narrow down the source of stress in a way that could lead to effective interventions. Psychometrics: Internal consistency of the scale: 0.87 Correlation with depressive symptoms (CES-D): 0.38 (p<0.001). Scoring Three domains are measured from this scale. The first one, defined as patient needs, is a sum of the 15 items providing a range of 0-15. The second one, defined as caregiver tasks, is the sum of the tasks for which the caregiver provided assistance. The range could be 0-15, but cannot be higher than the sum of the patient needs. The third domain, caregiver burden, is a sum of the items for which the patient needed assistance AND the caregiver provided assistance AND the caregiver reported that providing this assistance was stressful. The possible range was 0-15 but could not be higher than the number of caregiver tasks. Digital Object Identifier (DOI): http://dx.doi.org/10.13072/midss.389
