Positive Psychological Assessment and Early-Stage Dementia
Objectives: There are no known positive psychological (PP) measures adapted/validated for use with people in the early stages of dementia. Objectives were to: (1) develop/pilot an accessible protocol for administering PP measures in this population; (2) examine their psychometric properties; and (3) provide preliminary observations about how people with early-stage dementia perceive various aspects of PP as it pertains to living with dementia.\n\nMethods: Five PP measures were adapted/administered to 36 people with early-stage dementia. Constructs of interests were gratitude
life satisfaction
meaning in life
optimism
and resilience. Psychometric data were calculated and response patterns analyzed.\n\nResults: Participants easily completed the adapted measures using the accessible protocol. Preliminary evidence of reliability and validity were yielded. Response patterns suggested a range of PP perceptions and experiences among participants.
