The purpose of the study was to determinate the relationship between the caregiver overload and the coping strategies in 93 principal caregivers of pediatric cancer patients, who were selected in a non-probabilistic way (69,9% female, 30.1% male, mean age = 37.20 years, SD=11,32). The scales Zarit Caregiver Burden Scale and the COPE-28 were applied. The results show the presence of significant and inverse correlations that vary between -.25 and -.56. Nevertheless, there was no significant association between the dimensions of caregiver burden and substance use. On the other hand, higher levels of overload are identified according to the variables of place of origin and hours dedicated to care. It is concluded that there is a significant relationship between overload syndrome and coping strategies.
