Data were analyzed using levene's test, t-test, wilcoxon test and correlation.

Results: Statistical analysis showed that there was significant difference in the level of asetilkoline before and after the intervention with p = 0.015, whereas significant differences in caring behavior indicates p = 0.001. The result of correlation test showed that there was significant correlation between the levels of acetylcholine and caring behavior after intervention (r = 0.003).
