Caregiver Burden Scale, CB (Elmstahl et al. 1996)- a 22-item questionnaire to measure the subjective burden of caregivers in five domains (general strain, isolation, disappointment, emotional involvement, and environment).
Scoring is 2 points for each 'yes', and 1 point for each 'sometimes' response. The higher the score, the higher the level of caregiver strain. VALIDITY AND RELIABILITY: Internal reliability coefficient is slightly higher (=. 90) than the coefficient originally reported for the CSI in 1983 (=.
The Burden Interview is composed of 22 questions, with a total score ranging between zero and 88 points, where larger scores indicate more significant burden( 6 ). The activities of daily living scales were completed by the caregivers to assess the elderly individuals' levels of dependence.
Gerontologic health scientific literature identifies a number of scales to measure caregiver burden. The Zarit Scale of Caregiver Burden or the Zarit Burden Interview is the most widely used instrument. Originally designed and tested in 1980 containing 29 items, it was reduced to 22 questions.
Caregiver difficulties scale (P-CDS) Each item was scored on a 5-point (0–4) Likert scale indicating the frequency/extent of each caregiving experience as perceived by the caregivers, with a final total score ranging from 0 to 100.
The measure contains five dimensions: personal and social restrictions, physical and emotional health, economic costs, value investment in caregiving, and the perception of the care recipient as provocateur. Items are scored on a 4-point scale (strongly agree, agree, disagree, strongly disagree).
SCORING KEY: o to 20 = little or no burden; 21 to 40 = mild to moderate burden; 41 to 60 = moderate to severe burden; 61 to 88 = severe burden. FIGURE 4. Caregiver Burden Scale.
Scoring is 2 points for each 'yes', and 1 point for each 'sometimes' response. The higher the score, the higher the level of caregiver strain. VALIDITY AND RELIABILITY: Internal reliability coefficient is slightly higher (=. 90) than the coefficient originally reported for the CSI in 1983 (=.
Ing to the normative data of the CBCL, a t-score ≤ 59 indicates non-clinical symptoms, a t-score between 60 and 64 indicates that the child is at risk for problem behaviors, and a t-score ≥ 65 indicates clinical symptoms (for demographical, cognitive, and psychopathological measures of participants, see Table 1).
Although the CBCL does not require administration by a clinician, someone with at least a graduate-level degree—that included coursework in standardized assessments—should administer it. The tool requires approximately 15 minutes for administration.
