Summary

The Three Good Things (3GT) is a gratitude list intervention that is empirically supported (Emmons \& McCullough, 2003; Seligman et al., 2005) and is a low-cost, easily accessible tool for medical and mental providers to recommend and dementia caregivers to implement independently. Thus, this study aims to investigate the feasibility of use of 3GT in the dementia caregiving population and investigate potential therapeutic mechanisms of the intervention.

Intervention Protocol (The 3GT)

Participants will be asked to identify three things that went well that day and their role for this occurring \["What went well today, and what was your role in making it happen?" as adapted from (Sexton \& Adair, 2019)\]. They will be asked to engage in this exercise for 15 days during the evening.

OTHER

Control Group

Participants will be asked to reflect on early memories of their life, with no specific prompts provided, for 15 days during the evening. This activity is consistent with prior efficacy studies of 3GT (Seligman et al., 2005).
