Views on ageing in carers and non-carers of people living with dementia

Negative views on ageing are bad for our health. They increase the risk of mental and physical health conditions, cognitive decline, and even mortality. We are interested in how unpaid carers of people living with dementia and non-carers differ in their view older people in general, and how they view their own ageing. This study is co-supervised by Dr Blossom Stephan.
