Quality of life tools to inform co-design in the development of assistive technologies for people with dementia and their carerTools Craven, Michael P., De Filippis, Maria Laura and Dening, Tom (2014) Quality of life tools to inform co-design in the development of assistive technologies for people with dementia and their carer. Lecture Notes in Computer Science, 8868 . pp. 394-397. ISSN 0302-9743 Full text not available from this repository.AbstractA number of tools exist to measure quality of life (QoL) for people with dementia (PwD). A selection of existing measures are summarised, obtained from an online literature survey, comprising of scales administered either by healthcare professionals with the PwD (self-report) and/or their carers (proxy report) or from observation. It is suggested that a combination of such tools with user satisfaction questionnaires may provide a way to approach the problem of evaluating Assistive Technology (AT) solutions or inform co-design of technological solutions with PwD and their carers.
