Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi pengalaman tekanan yang dialami oleh caregiver informal dalam merawat lansia dengan demensia serta memahami strategi coping yang digunakan untuk menghadapi tekanan tersebut. Penelitian ini berfokus pada dinamika psikologis individu yang menjalankan peran pengasuhan tanpa pelatihan medis formal dan tanpa imbalan finansial, yang sering kali dihadapkan pada perubahan perilaku lansia yang menantang dan membebani. Metodologi penelitian yang digunakan adalah pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode fenomenologi interpretatif. Pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui wawancara mendalam (in-depth interview) semi-terstruktur terhadap tiga partisipan caregiver informal yang dipilih melalui teknik purposive sampling, dengan dukungan triangulasi sumber data dari significant other. Prosedur analisis data menggunakan analisis tematik untuk mengidentifikasi pola pengalaman hidup dan mekanisme adaptasi partisipan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa caregiver informal mengalami tekanan fisik, emosional, dan psikologis akibat tuntutan pengasuhan yang berkelanjutan. Untuk menghadapi tekanan tersebut, partisipan menggunakan dua bentuk strategi coping. Problem-focused coping diwujudkan melalui penjadwalan rutinitas yang terstruktur (Planful Problem Solving), mencari bantuan dari lingkungan sosial (Seeking Social Support), serta memodifikasi gaya komunikasi dan manipulasi situasional. Sementara itu, emotion-focused coping diterapkan melalui menjaga jarak dari sumber stres (Escape Avoidance), regulasi diri dan pelepasan emosional (Self-Controlling), penilaian makna hidup positif (Positive Reappraisal), serta penerimaan diri atas tanggung jawab dan kompensasi emosional (Accepting Responsibility). Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa strategi coping yang digunakan bersifat adaptif dan dinamis, yang membantu caregiver mempertahankan kesejahteraan psikologis dalam situasi pengasuhan yang menekan. ***** This study aims to explore the experience of pressure encountered by informal caregivers in caring for elderly people with dementia and to understand the coping strategies used to deal with such pressure. This research focuses on the psychological dynamics of individuals performing caregiving roles without formal medical training and financial rewards, who are often confronted with challenging and burdensome behavioral changes in the elderly. The research methodology employs a qualitative approach using the interpretive phenomenological method. Data collection was conducted through semi-structured in-depth interviews with three informal caregiver participants selected through purposive sampling, supported by data source triangulation from significant others. The data analysis procedure utilized thematic analysis to identify patterns in the life experiences and adaptation mechanisms of the participants. The results show that informal caregivers experience physical, emotional, and psychological pressure due to continuous care demands. To deal with these pressures, participants employed two forms of coping strategies. Problem-focused coping is manifested through structured routine scheduling (Planful Problem Solving), seeking assistance from the social environment (Seeking Social Support), and modifying communication styles and situational manipulation. Meanwhile, emotion-focused coping is applied through distancing from sources of stress (Escape Avoidance), self-regulation and emotional release (Self-Controlling), positive reappraisal, and accepting responsibility along with emotional compensation (Accepting Responsibility). In conclusion, the coping strategies used are adaptive and dynamic, assisting caregivers in maintaining psychological well-being within stressful caregiving situations.
