Participants wanted for study on stigma and dementia
Marco Brigiano, a psychologist and PhD researcher from the Università di Bologna and currently a visiting researcher at the University of Liverpool, is conducting an international study on stigma, social health, and help-seeking behaviours amongst people living with dementia.
The study is exploring the impact of stigma on people living with dementia and their caregivers, how stigma influences social participation and help-seeking, and possible differences in relation to stigma and dementia between the UK and Italy.
Participants should be:
- Living with dementia and aware of their diagnosis
- Unpaid informal caregivers/former caregivers
- Adults aged 65+ without cognitive impairment
Participation involves completing a short questionnaire (15–20 minutes) either online or in-person. The online version of the questionnaire is here: https://app.onlinesurveys.jisc.ac.uk/s/liverpool/stigma-project
