Description

Rebecca Allen, Keisha Carden, Candice Reel, and Daniel Potts describe a learning program at the University of Alabama in this 2023 paper. The program pairs student teams with people who have dementia at an adult day center. Together they take part in art therapy and sharing of memories.

Graduate students in a psychology field ran outcome research with a mixed team from other fields. Across seven terms, students in the course showed better attitudes toward people with dementia than students in standard classes. They also reported more empathy. The authors say hands-on work like this helps train new staff for aging care. Students learned research methods by doing real studies in the community.
