Effects of A Culturally Tailored ADRD Education Program for Asian American Older Adults in Michigan
This study underscores the value of culturally tailored, community-based interventions for improving ADRD literacy among older Asian Americans. Knowledge improved across all groups, while stigma reduction was observed in Korean and Chinese participants. Addressing dementia-related worry remains challenging, calling for innovative strategies to manage emotional responses, such as anxiety and fear, related to ADRD awareness. Further research is needed to understand subgroup differences in dementia stigma reduction.
