Annotation | Researchers variously from the Universities of Wales (Bangor), Hull, Maastricht (the Netherlands), and Edinburgh, and North Dublin Psychology Service have collaborated to produce five papers that review research conducted on awareness and dementia in the past 15 years. The first paper presents neurological, psychiatric and psychoanalytical perspectives from which awareness of dementia is conceptualised. Other papers review assessment methods and measures, clinical correlates of awareness in dementia, and ethical and legal issues in relation to people with dementia. An editorial article introduces and sets the context for these papers. (RH). |
