Abstract(s)

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia, accounting for approximately 60–70% of all cases. Its prevalence is expected to double by 2050, potentially affecting over half a million people in Portugal. Cognitive stimulation is a recommended psychosocial intervention for individuals with AD. To assess the effectiveness of such interventions, repeated-measures ANOVA or mixed linear models (MLMs) are commonly used.
