What matters the most in physical activity interventions for people living with dementia – a survey for professionals, volunteers, friends, relatives and carers
You are invited to take part in a research study. See below the key information about this research. Please click here to access the full version of the participant information sheet.
- This survey is formed of two rounds. If you decide to take part, it is important that you complete both rounds.
- Each round should take you up to 20 minutes to complete.
- The first round starts at the bottom of this page. If you are using a smart phone or tablet, you will see a blue arrow to the right at the bottom of this page that will take you to the first question of this survey.
- A few months after completing this (round 1 survey) you will receive an email with the link to the round 2.
- This study aims to get to an agreement of what are the most important effects of physical activity for people living with dementia.
- You have been chosen because you have been involved in physical activity for people living with dementia, as a professional, a friend or a relative.
- By “physical activity”, we mean any activity that involves moving the body. It can be walking, doing housekeeping tasks, gardening or doing exercise or sports.
- The information you give to this study will be used in scientific articles, posters, leaflets, conferences and other public talks, but you will never be identified - your identity stays confidential at all times.
- If you wish to remove your answers from the results of this study, after you have submitted the survey, please contact Ana-Carolina (contacts below).
