Increasing Wayfinding for Long-Term Care Residents with Dementia using Spaced Retrieval Training with External Aids

Rose, Veronica Joy

Abstract Details

2012, Master of Arts, Ohio State University, Speech Language Pathology.
The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of Spaced Retrieval (SR) training in the use of external memory aids to assist long-term care residents with dementia in wayfinding. SR training sessions were analyzed for three individuals with dementia to document the impact of SR training on expected response mastery and generalization of finding his/her room unassisted. Results revealed mastery for one participant out of three (33%) with the given criterion. However, evidence of learning across sessions and generalization outside of training sessions was observed.
