Outline of Final Research Achievements

The psychological factor including the feeling of loneliness might affect the behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD). However, it has not yet been fully elucidated. First, we investigated the feature of the patients who exhibited the first manifestations of psychosis after the age of 60. In the study, living alone was not associated with the psychosis. Second, we examined the relationship between the feeling of loneliness and BPSD. The BPSD were not influenced by the feeling of loneliness. These results suggested that living alone and feeling of loneliness did not affect the BPSD. However, in some cases, the feeling of loneliness affected the BPSD, and the intervention in the feeling of loneliness improved the BPSD. Further studies are needed.
