Methodologies and methods for research on non‐pharmacological interventions for dementia: Gaps and state‐of‐the‐art evidence
The identified relevant and novel methodologies and methods for research on non-pharmacological interventions in dementia care showcase research approaches that adhere to multiple core components of the MRC framework. Findings will inform a Delphi study (ARCOM-24-1250087 awarded) to reach a consensus on the appropriate approaches to develop, implement, and evaluate interventions. The goal is to stimulate a methodological debate and to reduce the gap between research and practice, and ultimately advance best practice in the field.
