Search for: [Abstract = "Group B the level of caregiver burden was high \(3.03 points\). In subsequent subscales of the Caregiver Burden Scale the results indicated medium burdening of the caregivers in Group A and Group B in the following areas\: disappointment \(2.84 points vs. 2.82 points\), emotional involvement \(2.15 points vs. 2.51 points\) and environment \(2.05 points vs. 2.10 points\). The study results demonstrated that the level of fatigue with daily life among caregivers of persons with Alzheimer's disease in both groups \(Group A and B\), measured using the Daily Life Fatigue Questionnaire for the general mean value was 9.76±6.05 points out of 24 points possible to achieve. The multiple correlation coefficient for the dependent variable of caregiver burden according to the Caregiver Burden Scale \- total score for the analysed group \(Group A and B\) demonstrated significant correlation with the necessity of the constant presence of the caregiver with the person receiving care \(R=0.4201\; p=0,0001\). The multiple correlation coefficient in the general score of daily life fatigue among caregivers in Group A was R=0.5042\; p=0.0010 and in Group B it was R=0.3015\; p=0.0334. The coefficient of determination in Group A indicated R2=25.42% vs R2=9.0% in Group B. The level of daily life fatigue in caregivers providing care to persons who used day care centres was lower by about 16.0% than in caregivers provid"]
