Abstract
Dementia of Alzheimer’s type (DAT) is the most common cause of dementia in the older people. The importance of Emotional Intelligence is in equipping caregivers to deal efficiently with Alzheimer patients. The current study seeks to evaluate the role played by Emotional Intelligence and Socio-economic Status of caregivers of Alzheimer patients on the Quality of Life of Alzheimer patients. The total numbers of participants in the study were 60 caregivers of Alzheimer patients who were given tests of Emotional Intelligence scale and Alzheimer’s disease Related Quality of Life (ADRQoL). The data was analysed using appropriate statistical methods. The Emotional Intelligence and the socioeconomic status of caregivers of Alzheimer patients had no significant effect on the Quality of Life of Alzheimer patients and major statistical significance was noted. Further enquiry into other factors affecting the Quality of Life of Alzheimer patients is warranted.
