Music Listening Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Effect of Personalized Music on the Elderly With Cognitive Impairment and Dementia: a Quasi-experimental Study.
This pilot study was designed to evaluate the effects of Individualized music listening (IML) implemented on older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and PwD. This quasi-experimental study used convenience sampling where thirty-two elderly individuals were recruited from five community-based dementia care centers then assigned to experimental (EG, n = 16) or control (CG, n = 16) groups according to the self-reports of importance of music in their lives and according to their personal wishes. The EG received eight treatments of IML (two times per week, 20 minutes per time), while the CG received the usual activities of the care centers for four weeks when EG received IML. The anxiety levels of both groups were investigated before and after first time IML and after eighth time IML. The researcher observed positive and negative behaviors of EG before, during and after each IML per 20 minutes in each time IML.
