Hello there!
I am posting on this page today because I am requesting participation in a research study I am conducting in partial fulfilment for my doctoral (PsyD) degree. In short, my research involves the study of thoughts and feelings experienced by spousal caregivers of individuals with dementia. If you are a spousal caregiver for an individual with dementia, I would greatly appreciate your help with my research. Specifically, I am looking for spousal caregivers who are the primary caregiver for their spouse with dementia and who currently live with them in the United States. The study will only take about 20-30 minutes to complete, and all data collected will be anonymous. If you choose to participate, you will be asked to answer a brief survey including your background information for you and your spouse, your thoughts and feelings related to caregiving for your spouse, and your feelings in general. Information from this study will help in learning more about emotions related to caregiving among spousal caregivers of individuals with dementia. Your participation may help to facilitate the creation of programming and interventions for spousal caregivers of persons with dementia.
