Sleep Enhancement Preferences of Older Adults and People Living with Dementia
We want to understand how people with dementia, their carers, and people over 65 feel about different sleep treatments. This study involves completing a 20 minute online survey.
In this, you will be given different options for a hypothetical treatment for insomnia, and asked which one you would choose. Each treatment has different factors that you will need to consider when making your choice. All of the different factors are explained in the survey.
This project has been approved by the Monash University Human Research Ethics Committee approved, Project ID: 45932
