摘要
This study assessed the burden, psychological distress and quality of life (QoL) of Malaysian family caregivers of outpatients with schizophrenia. Of the caregivers (N = 200), 49.5% reported a high burden of care. Higher psychological distress and burden correlated with lower QoL. Older, divorced/widowed, and lower educational level caregivers indicated lower physical QoL. Unemployed caregivers indicated lower mental QoL. There is a need to routinely assess these family caregivers for psychological distress and to provide psychoeducation and counseling.
