Sponsor's own description
Along with more people worldwide having dementia, the number of people with dementia and their family caregivers have increased in Japan. However, psychological support for family caregivers of people with dementia is still limited in Japan. The purpose of this pilot study is to examine feasibility and preliminary efficacy of a group-based acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) for family caregivers of people with dementia in Japan compared to a group-based cognitive behavior therapy (CBT). This study also preliminarily examines the efficacy of combining psychological intervention for family caregivers (group-based ACT/CBT) with psychological intervention for their care recipients (group-based reminiscence therapy).
