Abstract

The impact of dementia on the self has become the subject of much research over the last few years, mainly due to the implications for support and care for people with dementia. However, there are a number of limitations of this research that make it difficult to integrate the existing evidence and to draw any firm conclusions regarding the persistence of self. This highlights the need for a different approach to studying the self in people with dementia in order to obtain more robust evidence from future studies. This paper attempts to integrate current research using an existing systematic and comprehensive framework of the self, and outlines the advantages and limitations of using such a framework as the basis for future studies.
