The Relationship Between Education Status and Care Burden of Mothers of Individuals With Cerebral Palsy

Sponsor: Muş Alparslan University

Summary

This study, examines how maternal education affects caregiving burdens for children with cerebral palsy. Cerebral palsy requires long-term, intensive care, often leading to significant physical, emotional, and financial strain on caregivers. The study aims to assess whether higher maternal education is associated with lower care burdens, possibly due to increased access to resources or coping strategies, and whether lower educational levels result in greater challenges. A survey, combined with standardized measures such as the Caregiver Burden Scale, will be used to quantify the caregiving burden. The results are expected to inform policies or interventions aimed at reducing caregiver strain.
