Abstract:	Purpose The purpose of this study was to examine the psychometric properties of the Caregiver Burden Index (CBI) in Turkish mothers of children with allergies. Method The participants of this methodological study were 213 mothers of children with allergies between 6 and 12 years. Construct validity was evaluated through factor analysis and reliability was evaluated through internal consistency and item-total correlation. Results In reliability analysis, the overall Cronbach's alpha value (0.85) demonstrated a high level of reliability. The corrected item-total correlation varied between 0.63 and 0.84. In exploratory factor analysis, it was detected that 3 factors structure explained 73.6% of the total variance. Conclusion This study indicated that the CBI is a valid and reliable tool to assess the caregiver burden of mothers of Turkish children with allergies.
