Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The focus of this work is to explore the use of modern mobile technology to enable people with Alzheimer's disease to improve their abilities to perform activities of daily living and hence to promote independence and participation in social activities. This work also aims at reducing the burden on caregivers by increasing the AD patients' sense of competence and ability to handle behavior problems.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The investigators developed ADcope, an integrated application that includes several modules that target individuals with Alzheimer's disease , using mobile devices. The investigators developed two different user interfaces: a text-based and a graphic-based. To evaluate the usability of the application, participants with early stages of AD were asked to run the two user interfaces of the spaced retrieval memory exercise using a tablet mobile device.
