By Yuan Sheng Feng, Emilia Barakova, Matthias Rauterberg A and 1 others.
Abstract
Introduction
Meaningful engagement in clinical interventions or technology-mediated activities can support the psychosocial well-being of persons living with dementia. However, meaningfulness is often assumed rather than explicitly conceptualized in both academic context and in care practice.OBJECTIVES: This review aims to examine how interventions and activity provision can support psychosocial well-being and how meaningful engagement is shaped by the conditions surrounding their provision, with particular attention to people with moderate and advanced dementia in long-term care facilities.
