Knowledge and attitudes towards Alzheimer’s disease among adult residents in Jiulongpo, Chongqing, China: A cross-sectional survey
People's understanding of AD is limited, especially in the areas of "Caregiving" and "Symptoms", and they hold a neutral attitude toward dementia. We recommend intensifying health education efforts on AD knowledge across different populations, particularly emphasizing the promotion of knowledge in weak areas, while also cultivating their friendly attitudes towards dementia patients.
