However, these groups do not specifically cater to caregivers of individuals with spouses affected by young-onset dementia.\n                    <jats:bold>Objective:<\/jats:bold>\n                    To assess the effectiveness of a support and training group specifically targeted towards spouses of individuals with young onset dementia and its impact on reducing caregiver burden.\n                    <jats:bold>Participants and Methods:<\/jats:bold>\n                    Participants were recruited from a single memory clinic in Catalonia, Spain. The Zarit Burden Interview (ZBI) was utilized to evaluate caregiver burden both before and after participation in the support groups and a combined quantitative and qualitative analysis approach was employed.\n                    <jats:bold>Results:<\/jats:bold>\n                    A total of 77 caregivers were included and assessed, comprising 45.5% females with a mean age of 55\u00a0years and 54.5% males with a mean age of 63\u00a0years. While the overall caregiver burden, as measured by the ZBI, did not exhibit a significant reduction following participation in the group sessions, a notable decrease in ZBI scores was observed among caregivers with the highest burden at baseline. Three key stages were identified throughout the sessions: (1) discussions pertaining to the type of dementia and its associated changes; (2) the provision of care and attention to spouses along with the exchange of information among participants; and (3) identification of caregivers\u2019 needs.\n                    <jats:bold>Conclusions:<\/jats:bold>\n                    The subgroup of caregivers of persons with young onset dementia who exhibited the highest burden at baseline derived the greatest benefit from the support groups.
