Supplementary files for Bowes and Dawson (2019) 'Designing Environments for People with Dementia: A Systematic Literature Review'

Abstract

This dataset consists of three supplementary files as described in the Appendix to the publication 'Designing environments for people with dementia: a systematic literature review', written by Alison Bowes and Alison Dawson and published by Emerald Publishers. The literature review was funded by the Dementia Services Development Trust. The purpose of the review was to provide a summary of the research evidence relating to the design of built environments for people with dementia, and the results of the review inform both the most recent versions of the evidence-based suite of Dementia Design Audit Tools produced by the University of Stirling's Dementia Services Development Centre (DSDC) and the IRIDIS app, a digitised assessment tool for dementia design developed by the University of Stirling and Space Architecture (Europe) Ltd and available via iTunes and Google Play. The supplementary files provide: a fuller description of the framework for evaluation; brief justification for the quality assessment grade awarded to each included item (High, Medium or Low); and extracted 'PICO' data (Population of interest, population sample; Intervention/indicator; Comparison group; Outcomes of interest) for studies described in the included items.
