Abstract

Background: Emotion therapies are known to have positive effects on emotions and behavior. However, not many studies have been conducted to verify their effectiveness for neuropsychiatric symptoms among people with dementia. Aim: To analyze the efficacy of emotion therapies among people with dementia. Design: Systematic review. Methods: Articles related to emotion therapies for dementia patients were searched on PubMed. Studies were selected for the analysis based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: A total of 18 studies were included. Overall, emotion therapies showed a positive effect on behavior, assessments, and quality of life among people with dementia. Conclusion: Emotion therapies are an effective way to improve the quality of life of people with dementia. Integrating emotion therapies in dementia care is recommended as it improves neuropsychiatric symptoms of dementia.
