Psychoeducation focusing on cognitive stimulation for caregivers of elderly people diagnosed with Alzheimer's Disease: A randomized controlled intervention study
The study found that caregivers who participated in the 12 intervention sessions held greater knowledge on Alzheimer´s Disease, showing better management for dealing with dementia-related situations. Also, the psychological and sociodemographic aspects, such as less depressive symptoms, better perceived quality of life, and age, were positive predictors for holding greater knowledge on Alzheimer´s Disease.
