In order to create a better living environment for people with dementia and their caregiving family, it is essential to understand the changes in their life space, including both physical environments and social interpersonal networks. he major research method employed is semi-structured interviews with members in 18 families caring for relatives with mild to severe dementia. In these families 5 people with dementia participated in the study with non-structured interview. Cognitive mapping, physical enivorment assessment, and participatory observation were also used as multi-research methods. The life space frameworks proposed by Rowles(1978) and Tsai(2001) were modified to analyse the life space modification experiences of people with dementia and of their caregiving family members. The aspects of their life space consist of home, double surveillance zone, living neighborhood, social neighborhood, and fantasy. t is found that the life space of most people with dementia undergoes notable changes, and family caregivers play a key role in this dynamic change process. Family caregivers would accommodate their home to the safety and convenience of the person afflicted. They might also attempt to create a living environment—by spatial modification and activity arrangement–that can provide moderate stimuli for the elderly. Besides, the relationship and interaction pattern between the person with dementia and the caregiving family member also need some adjustment. As to life space beyond home, family caregivers would usually attempt to modify the outdoor activity patterns of people with dementia. To those elderly who are not allowed to go out by themselves or those whose mobility is limited, double surveillance zone may serve as a significant channel to get connected with the outside world. As the person with dementia stays at (or near) home to get in touch with the outdoor environment, family caregiviers can also make sure of their safety and well-being.reat heterogeneity exists in these families’ experiences of dementia home care and life space modification. A major changing tendency of their life space can be observed, however. As dementia progresses, the life space of the people afflicted concentrates more and more upon home environment. Activities inside or beyond their living neighborhood would most likely decrease. The occurrence of some events usually prompts family caregivers to modify the life space of people with dementia. Once the persons with dementia get loss or their physical strength and mobility declines to certain degree, or as they begin to show serious time and space disorientation, their life space might face further compression. variety of factors influence the dynamic changing process in which family caregivers try to shape a suitable caregiving life space for people with dementia. On the one hand, family caregivers need to respond to the elderlys’ changing conditions whether from their ageing or from their cognitive and noncognitive symptoms. On the other hand, family caregivers try hard to find balance among internal factors such as caregiving values, family conditions, family relationships, and resources, as well as external and structural factors such as social welfare accessability and living area environment. he life space of family caregivers turns out to be in covariation with that of people with dementia. In order to take control of caregiving and living requirements, most family caregiviers would modify the life space of the elderly carereceiver. In this modification process the caregiver’s own life space also undergoes changes to different extents. Some family caregivers, on the contrary, find it hard to alter the life space of the people with dementia due to the dyad’s relationship. They resort to changing their own life space or help from social networks so as to react to constantly-changing caregiving requirements.第一章 緒論......1、研究緣起......1、研究背景......4一)漫長的告別之路—失智症......4二)當嬰兒潮變成老人潮......7三)台灣的失智老人住在哪裡？......7四)失智老人變成失蹤老人？......8五)失智老人的在地老化......8二章 文獻回顧......13、生活空間......13、家庭照顧者的日常地理與公共空間經驗......15、失智症與空間......17一)失智老人的環境認知......17二)為失智老人而設計？......18三章 研究方法與歷程......25、研究發問......25、研究方法......25、研究歷程......27一)研究對象與範圍的設定......27二)尋找失智老人家屬的漫漫長路......28三)訪談過程......36、分析架構的形成......41四章 營造安心、安全的失智老人生活空間......45、家有失智老人—居家生活空間的安排......45一)實質環境和活動的調整......45二)家庭生活的轉變......57、失智老人走出家門？......61一)在出門與不出門之間的中介：雙重監視區......61二)生活鄰里......64三)鄰里之外......71、失智老人生活空間的變遷過程......76一)失智老人生活空間變遷的兩種模式......77二)失智老人生活空間變遷的關鍵轉折點......79、小結......88五章 不得不面對的現實—照顧家屬在失智老人生活空間營造過程中的調整與調適......93、照顧家屬與失智老人生活空間的共變......93、照顧家屬自身生活空間的變化與調適......96一)成為家庭照顧者的調適......96二)獨自外出的疑慮......100三)社會鄰里的支持......101四)從照顧者轉為探訪家屬—老人接受機構照顧......104、影響家屬營造失智老人生活空間過程的各種力量......105一)家庭狀況、關係和資源的磨合......105二)大環境與結構因素......109、失智老人家庭生活空間動態變化的兩個實例......115、小結......121六章 結論......123、結論......123、關於研究的省思......125考文獻......129application/pdf3262519 bytesapplication/pdfen-US失智老人生活空間家庭照顧者居家環境雙重監視區生活鄰里社會鄰里people with dementialife spacefamily caregiverhome modificationdouble surveillance zoneliving neighborhoodsocial neighborhoodthesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/179300/1/ntu-98-R94544009-1.pdf
