| Spanish abstract | Este estudio de tipo no experimental transversal comparativo tuvo como objetivo identificar las diferencias de apoyo social percibido entre cuidadores informales y formales de la ciudad de Bucaramanga (Colombia) y su área metropolitana. Se evaluaron 53 informales y 62 cuidadores formales de pacientes con demencia tipo Alzheimer por medio del cuestionario MOS de apoyo social percibido. Se logró determinar que existe una diferencia estadísticamente significativa entre interacción social (p=0,03); apoyo afectivo (p=0,032) y apoyo global (p=0,037) de los grupos de cuidadores formales e informarles; los cuidadores formales presentan mayor puntuación, lo que denota una mejor percepción del apoyo social que reciben. |
| English abstract | This non-experimental, cross-sectional and comparative research, aims to identify the differences in perceived social support between family and formal caregivers of Bucaramanga (Colombia) and its metropolitan area. It was evaluated 53 family caregivers and 62 formal caregivers of Alzheimer's disease patients, using the MOS social support survey. It was found that there is a statistically significant difference between social interaction (p=0,03), affective support (p=0,032), and total support (p=0,037) in both groups, being formal caregivers which had higher scores, what means that they have a better perception of the social support they receive. |
