PY - 2020 DA - 2020/02/07 TI - Behaviors of Persons with Dementia: A Review and New Perspective for Future Research JO - OBM Geriatrics SP - 104 VL - 04 IS - 01 AB - Through the assessment of previous and current literature on the behaviors experienced by persons with dementia, this review discusses the terminology, conceptual models, measurement techniques, and non-pharmacological interventions employed within behavioral research. Additionally, this review considers the illness experience and the need for more research using self-report methodology with persons with dementia in order to address the current gaps within the behaviour literature. With three main objectives, this review paper will address: (1) the literature on behaviors of persons with dementia; (2) the importance of and evidence of the illness experience of persons with dementia; and (3) future research goals and directions.
