Table 1_Subjective costs and benefits of online self-help group participation: findings fr

Qualitative interview data from 16 participants explores the subjective costs and benefits of an online self-help program for family caregivers of individuals of Turkish descent living with dementia in Germany. The dataset includes interviews with eight program participants at two time points and eight individuals who declined participation. It was created by Rona Bird and published under a CC-BY-4.0 license on figshare in May 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyzing themes of emotional support and information exchange based on participant interview data.
• Identifying practical and emotional barriers to program participation based on interviews with non-participants.
• Studying the impact of online formats on accessibility for caregivers from racialized communities.
• Developing recommendations for discrimination-critical facilitation of group interventions.

Strengths

• Includes perspectives from both program participants and non-participants, providing a dual viewpoint.
• Focuses on a specific, understudied population: family caregivers of Turkish descent in Germany.
• Data is published under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license for reuse.

Limitations

• The dataset is very small at 27.7 KB, suggesting limited scope.
• Row count and column-level documentation are absent, requiring manual inspection after download.
