The concept of caregiver burden (CB) makes reference to the negative repercussions
that AD has on different aspects such as the physical and psychological
health, the economic resources, and the social activities of caregivers [8-10]. The
emergence of anxiety and depression encompassing feelings of worry and fear
and somatic symptoms has been relatively neglected in this group [11]. CB
derives from the caregiver's perception of activities and stressors and is, thus,
influenced by many psychosocial factors such as kinship, social environment,
and the culture of caregivers [12].
