Individual transition occurs from adolescent idealism to pragmatic and adaptable thinking in early adulthood. During this period, individuals learn to integrate personal beliefs with the recognition that other perspectives are equally valid. Exposure to the complexities of modern society, diverse experiences, and higher education contribute to this adaptive thought process,...

Area of Science:

  • Gerontology
  • Neuroscience
  • Digital Health

Background:

  • The COVID-19 pandemic necessitated a shift to online service delivery.
  • Cognitive Stimulation Therapy (CST) is an established group intervention for dementia.
  • Adapting in-person therapies to virtual formats is crucial for accessibility.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and field-test a 14-session virtual Cognitive Stimulation Therapy (vCST) program.
  • To adapt existing CST protocols for online delivery.
  • To assess the feasibility and acceptability of vCST in a global context.

Main Methods:

  • Developed vCST protocol using existing CST manual and stakeholder consultation.
  • Field-tested the vCST protocol with 10 dementia groups across five countries.
  • Gathered feedback from 14 facilitators and participants to refine the protocol.

Main Results:

  • vCST demonstrated acceptability among facilitators and participants in field testing.
  • Feedback facilitated refinement of the vCST protocol.
  • A final vCST protocol with session materials and a global delivery framework was proposed.

Conclusions:

  • Virtual Cognitive Stimulation Therapy (vCST) is a feasible online intervention for people with dementia.
  • vCST is recommended for individuals unable to access in-person therapy.
  • Further research is needed to compare vCST outcomes with traditional in-person CST.
