Abstract

A person who has a mental disorder will experience a decrease in productivity so that they will experience obstacles in carrying out daily activities, social relationships, and get rejection from their surroundings. The family will become the primary caregiver who will play a role in preventing, overcoming, and restoring the condition of the ODGJ family. The role of family caregivers has many burdens that are felt such as stress and feelings of shame with negative stigma about ODGJ so that it will cause physical, emotional, and psychological disorders, one of which is their quality of life. The purpose of the study was to determine the effectiveness of support group therapy to improve the quality of life of family caregivers in ODGJ. This study used a one group before - after (pretest - posttest) design, with five participants. The intervention given was Support Group Therapy which consisted of six intervention sessions. Support Group Therapy is able to overcome and provide emotional support between its members so that it will reduce the burden felt by caregivers and improve the quality of life as family caregivers. The measuring instrument used was the AC-Qol (Adult Carer Quality of life Questionnaire) from Joseph et al. (2017) which has been adapted into Indonesian by Ligina Ayudia in 2020. The results obtained were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test and obtained an asymp value of 0.043 <0.05 and N-Gain of 60.26% and the highest changes were in the aspects of personal growth and caring stress. So it can be said that Support Group Therapy is quite effective in improving the quality of life of family caregivers in People with Mental Disorders (ODGJ).
