Adult informal caregivers play an essential role in the care of people with dementia living in the community. Adult informal caregivers may experience a host of negative psychological, emotional, and physical effects because of their roles as caregivers. The purpose of this quantitative correlational study was to investigate the influence of locus of control and mindfulness on the perceived caregiver burden experienced by adult informal caregivers of people with dementia, controlling for relevant sociodemographic characteristics. Social determination theory and social learning theory provided the theoretical foundation for this study. Variables were measured using the Caregiver Burden Inventory, Mindfulness Attention Awareness Scale, and Locus of Control Scale. Sampling of participants included 104 adult informal caregivers of people with dementia living in the community. Hierarchical multiple linear regression was employed to analyze the data. The results indicated that locus of control was not significantly associated with perceived caregiver burden. However, mindfulness was significantly associated with perceived caregiver burden. Results may be used for positive social change to address the psychosocial challenges experienced by adult informal caregivers caring for people with dementia.
