Achtergrond van het onderzoek
This randomized controlled trial aims to examine the effects of observation of walking on physical, cognitive, and quality of life related outcome measures in older adults with dementia, residing in residential care facilities.
Doel van het onderzoek
1. The observation of videos of walking people has a beneficial effect on the amount of physical activity and on physical performance in older adults with dementia
2. The observation of videos of walking people has beneficial effects on cognition and quality of life related outcomes in older adults with dementia
Onderzoeksopzet
There are four timepoints for the test administrations: baseline (T1; week 0), halfway through the intervention (T2; week 7), post-intervention (T3; week 13), and follow-up (T4; week 19).
Onderzoeksproduct en/of interventie
This is a 3-month intervention in which videos are shown to an experimental group (videos of walking people), and to a control group (videos of nature). These videos are shown on two TV screens in the living rooms of residential care facilities, and are shown during the whole day on weekdays.
