Detaljeret beskrivelse
Background: Zentangle is a visual art therapy method that can be used for meditative purposes by promoting creativity and focused attention in individuals under stress, thereby indirectly facilitating mental relaxation, stress relief, and mindfulness.
Aim: This study aimed to determine the effect of Zentangle practice on perceived caregiver burden, stress levels, and burnout among family caregivers of patients receiving palliative care.
Design: This study was designed as a randomized controlled experimental trial with a pretest-posttest design and was conducted between March and June 2025.
Setting/Participants: The study sample consisted of 60 family caregivers of patients hospitalized in a palliative care unit, including 30 participants in the intervention group and 30 in the control group.
Intervention: Participants in the intervention group received a two-week meditative art therapy intervention based on the Zentangle method. The control group followed the standard routine care process without the art therapy intervention.
Data Collection: Data were collected through face-to-face interviews. The data collection tools included an Individual Descriptive Information Form, the Caregiver Burden Scale, the Caregiver Stress Index, and the Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey. These tools were administered to both groups as pretest measures before the intervention and as posttest measures immediately following the completion of the two-week study period.
