The Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) was used for the present study which was developed by Kathryn M. Connor and Jonathan R.T. Davidson as a means of assessing resilience and self-prepared self-efficacy checklist was used to assess self-efficacy of caregivers. Results revealed that there was a significant impact of self-efficacy on resilience of caregivers attending to Alzheimer’s patients.
