Retrospective Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) scores over three time points (n = 20). The blue dotted line and triangles represent the Alone Group, the red solid line and squares represent the Caregiver Group. The x-axis indicates the PSS time point inquired about in the questionnaire, and the y-axis indicates the PSS score. The mean difference between the PSS score before and during COVID-19 is represented on the right bar graph labelled ΔPSS1, and the difference between the PSS score during COVID-19 and the last month is represented by the rightmost bar graph labelled ΔPSS2. Note the trend for higher perceived stress levels among the Caregiver Group during and after COVID-19. Error bars represent the standard error of the mean.
