    Objective: Determine the quality of life of the caregiver in patients with schizophrenia treated at the Community Mental Health Center, Wiñay, 2020. Material and methods: The approach will be quantitative, because the variables will be measured through the use of an instrument. The design will be transversal, because the data is collected punctually with respect to time. Furthermore, it will be descriptive because it will be observed and measured without manipulating variables. The technique to be used is the survey. The instrument that will be used is the WHOQOL BREF. The WHOQOL-BREF is made up of 26 items to provide a broad and comprehensive evaluation. The instrument should be self-administered if respondents have the necessary understanding of it, otherwise interviewer-assisted or interview-administered forms should be used. It contains 4 dimensions, which denote people's perception of the quality of life in these dimensions. Domain scores are scaled in a positive direction (i.e., higher scores indicate better quality of life). The mean score of the items within each dimension is used to calculate the dimension score. Once the conversions have been made, the final scores are on a scale of 0 – 100. In Peru it has been validated in various investigations. Leguía, in Peru, in the study “Quality of Life and coping strategies in older adults in Lima” carried out validity and reliability tests, finding a Cronbach's Alpha of 0.86. De la Cruz and collaborators, in 2014, also carried out a validation of expert judgment, obtaining high agreement rates.
