简要总结
This Phase I study will involve initial development and evaluation of an innovative cross-platform software app called All About Me (AAM), which will consist of Serious Digital Health Games (SDHGs) for PWD. The AAM app will assist staff in providing person-centered care and enable residents to improve relationships with one another and with staff, thereby promoting a sense of community. This Phase I study has three Specific Aims: (1) Develop an Alpha version of the AAM App, (2) Examine acceptability of and satisfaction with the AAM App, and (3) Examine the impact of the Resident Game Bundle / Survey Says Game on engagement/affect.
详细描述
Study Design: The study will utilize a quasi-experimental pre-post design.
Sample:
PWD: Twenty-four PWD will take part in the study, including 12 ALF residents and 12 living in a NH.
Family Members: Twenty-four family members will also take part in the study-i.e., one for each PWD. In some cases, the "family member" may be a friend or legally authorized representative.
Staff Members: Twelve LTC staff members will take part in the quasi-experiment-five at the ALF and five at the NH.

结局指标
主要结局
Change From Baseline to Treatment for Constructive Engagement on the Menorah Park Engagement Scale
时间窗: Baseline (Weeks 1-4) and Treatment (Weeks 5-10)
Constructive Engagement on the Menorah Park Engagement Scale is defined as doing or commenting on something related to the target activity. During baseline, multiple observations of "standard" activities were observed and a mean was calculated. Then, again, during treatment, multiple activities were observed and a mean was calculated. The minimum value for Constructive Engagement is zero (0) and the maximum score is two (2). Higher scores represent a better outcome.
Change From Baseline to Treatment for Passive Engagement on the Menorah Park Engagement Scale
时间窗: Baseline (Weeks 1-4) and Treatment (Weeks 5-10)
Passive Engagement on the Menorah Park Engagement Scale is defined as listening or watching something related to the target activity. During baseline, multiple observations of "standard" activities were observed and a mean was calculated. Then, again, during treatment, multiple activities were observed and a mean was calculated. The minimum value for Passive Engagement is zero (0) and the maximum score is two (2). Lower scores represent a better outcome.
Change From Baseline to Treatment for Other Engagement on the Menorah Park Engagement Scale
时间窗: Baseline (Weeks 1-4) and Treatment (Weeks 5-10)
Other Engagement on the Menorah Park Engagement Scale is defined as doing, commenting, listening, or watching something NOT related to the target activity. During baseline, multiple observations of "standard" activities were observed and a mean was calculated. Then, again, during treatment, multiple activities were observed and a mean was calculated. The minimum value for Other Engagement is zero (0) and the maximum score is two (2). Lower scores represent a better outcome.
Change From Baseline to Treatment for Non-Engagement on the Menorah Park Engagement Scale
时间窗: Baseline (Weeks 1-4) and Treatment (Weeks 5-10)
Non-Engagement on the Menorah Park Engagement Scale is defined as sleeping and/or staring into space. During baseline, multiple observations of "standard" activities were observed and a mean was calculated. Then, again, during treatment, multiple activities were observed and a mean was calculated. The minimum value for Non-Engagement is zero (0) and the maximum score is two (2). Lower scores represent a better outcome.
Change From Baseline to Treatment for Pleasure on the Menorah Park Engagement Scale
时间窗: Baseline (Weeks 1-4) and Treatment (Weeks 5-10)
Pleasure on the Menorah Park Engagement Scale is defined as clearly observable laughing or smiling. During baseline, multiple observations of "standard" activities were observed and a mean was calculated. Then, again, during treatment, multiple activities were observed and a mean was calculated. The minimum value for Pleasure is zero (0) and the maximum score is two (2). Lower scores represent a better outcome.
