It is also increasingly recognised that some people living with dementia can use and benefit from using digital interventions themselves. Therefore, exploring the effectiveness and experiences of using such interventions is essential to optimise digital intervention development and delivery.<b>Method:</b> 5 databases were searched (MEDLINE (Ovid), PsycINFO, EMBASE, CINAHL and Web of Science) for papers reporting effectiveness outcomes or experiences, involving people living with dementia or mild cognitive impairment engaging with digital interventions for improving their quality of life. 73 relevant papers published between 2018-2023 were identified, 59 included effectiveness data and 18 included data on experiences.<b>Results:</b> The integration of evidence identified that people living with dementia can benefit from engaging in digital interventions, if they are motivated, and provided with tailored training, support, appropriate devices and content. Benefits were seen within the domains of cognition, health and well-being and social relationships. Benefits were more frequent when digital interventions were provided in the home environment with specified daily/weekly usage requirements.<b>Conclusion:</b> This review provides an overview of the current state of research exploring engagement of digital interventions by people with dementia for improving their quality of life. The findings provide guidance on how to optimise the method of delivery. Future research should explore how digital interventions can improve social relationships and self-concept of people living with dementia, the long-term sustainability of digital interventions, and how individuals with dementia form attitudes towards technology.</p>","PeriodicalId":72778,"journal":{"name":"Dementia (London, England)","volume":" ","pages":"14713012241302371"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142741470","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Excluding people with dementia from research is a form of epistemic injustice. In this article, we discuss epistemic injustice associated with data collection processes and the participation of people with dementia in scientific research. The challenges of participation that we discuss pertain to the role of gatekeepers and ethical research perspectives. The arguments presented are based on previous research, experiences from our current project, and critical self-assessment regarding the latter. The aim is to shed light on what enables or prevents people living with dementia from participating in research, and how this is connected to epistemic injustice. It is known that prejudices related to dementia affect both researchers and people living with dementia: the former tend to exclude people with dementia, and the latter may practice self-silencing due to dementia-related stigma. In addition to these individual issues, we argue that epistemic injustice occurs at a structural level, where a major role is played by gatekeepers and research ethics panels. As close family members, health officials, and dementia-related associations are the main gatekeepers, their attitudes and perceptions are highlighted. In terms of ethical issues, the concept of informed consent needs to be elaborated. If the research is not expected to harm participants and may contribute to improving the lives of those with dementia, the perspective should be shifted from informed consent to ongoing consent assessment. While acknowledging the features and symptoms of dementia, researchers should be more courageous, trust in the good cause, and enable persons living with dementia to participate in research that concerns them. This is the only way for researchers to genuinely understand the social world, experiences, and needs of those with dementia and to address epistemic injustice.</p>","PeriodicalId":72778,"journal":{"name":"Dementia (London, England)","volume":" ","pages":"14713012241299015"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142607678","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Dementia also impacts the relationship between the caregiver and the person with dementia. The quality of this relationship is, in turn, an important factor influencing the well-being of both dyad members. The psychoeducational intervention \"Learning to feel better . . . and help better\" has shown positive results regarding family caregivers' subjective burden, psychological distress, and self-efficacy. However, relationship quality has not been addressed in the context of this intervention.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>A longitudinal constructivist grounded theory approach was used to explore relationship quality as perceived by caregivers, possible changes and intervention components facilitating or preventing such changes.
