Schizophrenia is one of the most common psychotic disorders in the world. Schizophrenia patients in leading an optimal
daily life, needed the help in caring for and support from other parties called Caregiver. Caregiver as a treatment system

experienced by caregiver refers to the burden of care, social, psychological, behavioral, functional, medical, physical and
financial. This study aims to determine the correlation between caregiver care burdens on sex and age in schizophrenic
