Given the crucial role that mothers play in child care, this study investigated the correlation between social support, care burden, and post-traumatic growth in mothers of children with leukemia. Methods: This descriptive-correlational study included 122 mothers of children under 14 years with leukemia. The study took place at the Tabriz Mardani Azari Children\u2019s Hospital. The data were collected via questionnaires including Northouse Social Support Questionnaire, Zarit Burden Interview (ZBI), and Post-Traumatic Growth Inventory (PTGI). The data were analyzed by SPSS software. Pearson correlation test, analysis of variance (ANOVA) and independent t test were used to analyze of data. Results: There was a negative correlation between the total score of social support especially support from spouse and friends with mothers\u2019 care burden. The total score of social support had a positive correlation with mothers\u2019 post-traumatic growth. Additionally, support from spouses, friends, physicians, and nurses positively correlated with post-traumatic growth scores. Conclusion: Identifying the support resources of mothers and reinforcing them can improve the mothers\u2019 well-being and increase the quality of child care by reducing the burden of care and improving post-traumatic growth.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.34172\/jcs.025.33594","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,14]],"date-time":"2025-10-14T11:21:18Z","timestamp":1760440878000},"page":"191-197","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.34172\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Correlation of Social Support with Care Burden and Post-Traumatic Growth in Mothers of Children with Leukemia"],"prefix":"10.34172","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0661-5885","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Naier","family":"Moharrami","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Pediatric Health Research Center, Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, Tabriz, Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4035-1433","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Mahnaz","family":"Jabraeili","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatric, Faculty of Nursing and Midwifery, Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, Tabriz, Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1359-6467","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Hanieh","family":"Neshat","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatric, Faculty of Nursing and Midwifery, Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, Tabriz, Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3067-0606","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Mahni","family":"Rahkar Farshi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatric, Faculty of Nursing and Midwifery, Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, Tabriz, Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"20123","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,29]]},"container-title":["Journal of Caring Sciences"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/jcs.tbzmed.ac.ir\/PDF\/jcs-14-3-191.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/jcs.tbzmed.ac.ir\/PDF\/jcs-14-3-191.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,14]],"date-time":"2025-10-14T11:21:19Z","timestamp":1760440879000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/jcs.tbzmed.ac.ir\/Article\/jcs-33594"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,29]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"3","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,21]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.34172\/jcs.025.33594","relation":{},"ISSN":["2251-9920"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2251-9920","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,29]]},"assertion":[{"value":"Tabriz University of Medical Sciences","name":"journal_owner","label":"Journal Owner"},{"value":"Tabriz University of Medical Sciences","name":"journal_publisher","label":"Journal Publisher"},{"value":"2024-06-24","order":1,"name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2025-07-22","order":2,"name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2025-07-29","order":3,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}]}}
