Summary

The goal of is project is to improve caregiver education about the behavioral and psychological symptoms (BPSD) of dementia. This intervention will incorporate principles from the science of learning for structuring retrieval practice to optimize learning and long-term retention of key health information. The processing-knowledge model for ADRD care predicts that enhancing health knowledge using structured retrieval practice will best support caregivers of people living with dementia (PLwD).

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Structured Retrieval Practice (SRP)

Our Structured Retrieval Practice (SRP) Caregiver Intervention is a web-based multi-media program designed to enhance dementia caregivers' goal-relevant memory, reduce caregiver stress, and reduce perceptions of symptom severity. The self-guided online intervention does not require supervision by a healthcare professional. Caregivers learn modules on dementia care and complete dynamic multiple-choice tests targeting practical knowledge supported with detailed, elaborative feedback to correct health misconceptions.

BEHAVIORAL

Standard Health Education

Caregivers re-read modules on Alzheimer's Disease or related dementias (ADRD) in a webpage format, as would be available from online resources (e.g., National Institutes of Health) to mirror how most caregivers obtain information.
