Research on family caregivers of persons with dementia abounds with studies of psychoeducational and cognitive-behavioral interventions to reduce stress and promote mental health. Yet, the caregiver's needs for such interventions are rarely documented. This study of 87 dementia caregivers examined their needs for dementia education and Resourcefulness Training© using baseline cut scores on validated measures of dementia knowledge and resourcefulness skills. While 66 % showed high need for dementia education, 61 % showed moderate to high need for Resourcefulness Training© and 55 % showed moderate to high need for both, prompting future research to explore advantages of delivering both interventions to dementia caregivers.
研究表明，针对痴呆症患者的家庭照顾者的研究主要集中在心理教育和认知行为干预方面，以减轻压力和促进心理健康。然而，对于此类干预措施，照顾者的需求却很少被记录下来。本研究对 87 名痴呆症照顾者进行了研究，使用经过验证的痴呆症知识和应对技能测量的基线切分分数，考察了他们对痴呆症教育和应对技能训练的需求。尽管 66%的人表示对痴呆症教育有很高的需求，但有 61%的人表示对应对技能训练有中等到高度的需求，有 55%的人表示对两者都有中等到高度的需求，这促使未来的研究探索向痴呆症照顾者同时提供这两种干预措施的优势。
