ABSTRACT

Although there has been growing interest in visual art interventions for people with dementia, there is a restricted evidence base regarding their theoretical basis. To address this gap, this systematic literature review explored how and why visual art interventions work in dementia care. Common features of successful visual art interventions were identified, including: intervention ‘dose,’ session content, participant choice, artistic ability, the role of the facilitator/therapist, group work, and setting. Understanding the mechanisms and/or processes of visual art interventions is important for future development, evaluation, and implementation.

为痴呆症患者创建有效的视觉艺术干预需要哪些要素？系统评价

摘要

尽管对痴呆症患者的视觉艺术干预越来越感兴趣，但关于其理论基础的证据基础有限。为了解决这一差距，这篇系统的文献综述探讨了视觉艺术干预如何以及为什么在痴呆症护理中起作用。确定了成功的视觉艺术干预的共同特征，包括：干预“剂量”、会议内容、参与者选择、艺术能力、促进者/治疗师的角色、小组工作和环境。了解视觉艺术干预的机制和/或过程对于未来的开发、评估和实施非常重要。
