Sponsor's own description
Blue dishware was alternated with white dishware for lunch and dinner for residents living with dementia. Food consumption occurred in the home dining room and food was weighed before and after consumption to determine proportion consumed. Eating challenges were also noted. Within-participant comparisons were made to determine if food intake and eating challenges improved with the blue dishware condition.
