| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this comprehensive study, we reviewed the past decade of research of Cognitive Stimulation Therapy (CST) and cognitive stimulations as they diversely developed. An intention-to-treat analysis of the CST Japanese version (CST-J) showed that it could significantly improve cognitive function and mood. A preliminary Maintenance CST Japanese version (MCST-J) was developed and showed positive effects on QOL. An interview survey suggested that participants of CST-J and MCST-J could increasingly recognize the procedure and contents. Moreover, the basic system to train and supervise facilitators of CST-J was established. In addition, a preliminary Japanese version of Quality of Life in Late-Stage Dementia (QUALID) was developed in order to apply CST-J to people with more progressed dementia and it was found that the scale had good reliability and validity.
