| Caregivers' caregiving pressure questionnaire (CBI). Timepoint: Before the start of the intervention and 14 days after the last day of the intervention. Method of measurement: The Caregiver Burden Inventory (CBI) consists of 24 items, which were developed by Novak & Guest in 1989 to measure objective and subjective caregiving burden, and it measures subjective caregiving burden with greater emphasis. This questionnaire consists of five subscales: time-related caregiving burden (questions 1 to 5), developmental caregiving burden (questions 6 to 10), physical caregiving burden (questions 11 to 14), social caregiving burden (questions 15 to 19), and emotional caregiving burden (questions 20 to 24). The caregivers' responses will be measured on a 5-point Likert scale (completely false to completely true), so that the samples will choose one of the following options for each question: completely false (score 1), false (score 2), somewhat true (score 3), true (score 4), and completely true (score 5). Accordingly, the scores obtained from this questionnaire will range from 24 to 120, and according to the mean and standard deviation of the total caregiving stress scores, scores of 24 to 39 will be considered mild caregiving stress, 40 to 71 moderate caregiving stress, and 72 to 120 severe caregiving stress (Abbasi et al., 2012).;SF-36 Quality of Life Questionnaire.
