| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
An aim of the present study is to examine the impact of inter-generational cooperation on the quality of life of elderly Alzheimer’s sufferers.The subject consist of an intervention and a control groups of six and five sufferers, respectively, who were diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. Both groups attend day care services. The intervention group participates in the inter-generational program with children, while the control group does not. In the results, the score of QOL-AD of the subjects has been significantly higher in the intervention group comparing with that of the control group. Also the PGC-ARS, have been significantly higher in the intervention group those in the control group. The magnitude of the change was not so remarkable as to influence QOL-AD at home. The present intergenerational cooperation may improve the quality of life of moderate to severe Alzheimer’s sufferers.
