This article explores how people with dementia interact and solve problems while participating in social activities. The present article highlights social participation and interaction among elderly women with mild dementia who engaged in knitting as their main activity. The data were collected through participant observation at a day center in a Norwegian city, and the analysis revealed that the social activity of knitting facilitated conversations about different topics, required various forms of memory and problem solving, and involved different participant statuses. Being part of the knitting group appeared to help the participants maintain their skills and facilitated sociability.
本文探讨了痴呆症患者在参与社会活动时如何互动和解决问题。本文重点介绍了轻度痴呆症老年女性在参与编织这一主要活动时的社会参与和互动。数据通过在挪威一个城市的日托中心进行的参与式观察收集，分析结果表明，编织这种社会活动促进了关于不同主题的对话，需要各种形式的记忆和解决问题的能力，并涉及不同的参与者身份。作为编织小组的一员，似乎有助于参与者保持他们的技能，并促进社交能力。
