Summary

This study tested an online program called LEAF (Life Enhancing Activities for Family Caregivers) to help reduce stress and improve well-being in people caring for a family member with Alzheimer's disease. About 386 caregivers either joined a guided online group, used a self-guided version, or were placed on a waiting list. The program taught simple positive emotion skills to help caregivers feel less burdened and more positive.
