Study Summary

The pilot randomized controlled trial aims to assess effects of a guided online acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) intervention on distressed family caregivers of people with dementia (PwD) compared to the control group. A total of 24 family caregivers of PwD who meet the inclusion criteria will be recruited and randomized to either the intervention or control group. Exploratory hypotheses are that the ACT group will show decreases in caregivers' psychological distress and burden and improvements in QoL and engagement in meaningful activities at posttest and 1-month follow-up, compared to the control group. Also, the project will evaluate the feasibility of recruitment, adherence, and retention of caregivers and explore caregivers' experiences in the ACT intervention through semi-structured interviews at posttest. As part of the pretest, we will also explore caregivers' perceived impacts of COVID-19 on daily lives.
