This assignment requires a 3-page paper exploring other stimuli that may have a similar effect as music, animals, and young children for older adults experiencing dementia, supported by a summary of the film and three empirical articles.

In this film, you will see how ‘music’ was used to ‘wake-up’ older adults with dementia. In addition to ‘music’, exposing older adults with dementia to ‘adult / young children’ and ‘animals’ has a similar affect.

For this response, you will write a 3-page typed paper (no more / no less, excluding the reference page) {using Roman Times Font, size 12, double spaced,} describing your idea(s) as to what other stimuli you think may have a similar affect as ‘music’, ‘animals’, and ‘young children’ for older adults experiencing dementia.
Begin by briefly summarizing the main points of the film. Then research and identify THREE empirical articles that you will summarize as APA abstracts describing the purpose, methods, results, and discussions. Each should be one paragraph in length, and will used to support your ideas of how this / these stimuli assist older adults with dementia.
