Description
Jennie Dorris and three co-authors test an intergenerational music program for adults living with dementia in a study from 2023. Teen musicians performed each older participant's preferred music over video calls and drew them into interactive musical activities. Fourteen adults attended about four sessions each, near an hour per session, in a community dementia program.
Self-rated positive mood rose by about three points after the program, a moderate effect. In observed ten-minute samples, pleasure showed for over a minute in most observations. The authors present shared music across generations as a safe, pleasant, and scalable support for emotional well-being in dementia.
