Introduction. The PrAISED Randomised Controlled Trial (RCT) is evaluating a home-based, face-to-face, individually tailored, activity and exercise programme for people living with dementia. Social distancing requirements following the COVID-19 pandem...

International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 17(5), Article 1544. https://doi.org/10.3390/ijerph17051544

Physical activity is beneficial for people with dementia. We previously developed a theoretical model to explain behaviour change in physical activity in dementia (PHYT-in-dementia). This study aimed to externally validate the model. Validation occur...
