In the study, Subjects were assigned to either the control or experimental group. The experimental group consisted of 10 and the control group of 14 patients. The experimental group receive a Leisure-based occupational therapy intervention, and the control group receive a conventional occupational therapy intervention. Leisure satisfaction, activities of daily living, and rehabilitation motivation were measured to Canadian occupational performance measure(COPM), Korean Activities of Daily Living(K-ADL·K-IADL), and Patient Questionnaire of Rehabilitation Motivation(PAREMO). Evaluation scores were compared before and after intervention to determine whether or not there were differences over time. And we examined the correlation between the variables. The results of this study were as follows: 1) The leisure-based occupational therapy has a significant effect on leisure satisfaction and rehabilitation motivation(p<.01). 2) The conventional occupational therapy has a significant effect on activities of daily living(p<.01). 3) There was a significant correlation between ADL and IADL(p<.01). 4) There was a significant correlation between leisure satisfaction and Rehabilitation Motivation(p<.01). Implications for occupational therapy include that we must offer appropriate approach with considering the interests and value of patients to them. And proposing studies to demonstrate the efficacy of occupational therapy approaches.

This study was conducted to compare the effects of general and pathological characteristics of elderly with dementia on their cognitive ability, performance of activities of daily living (ADL), and quality of life. Data were collected between July 15 and August 30, 2016 from 136 elderly with dementia who used day care centers. The Korean version of Mini-Mental Status Examination, Korean version of Modified Barthel Index, and Korean version of the WHO Quality of Life Scale Abbreviated Version were used for data collection and values obtained were analyzed accordingly. Significant correlations were found between cognitive ability and performance of ADL, between quality of life and cognitive ability, and between cognitive ability and performance of ADL (p<.001). Moreover, quality of life of elderly with dementia was greatly affected by cognitive ability and performance of ADL (p<.01). Therefore, it is believed that more active therapeutic interventions and studies are needed from sociophysical aspect of elderly with dementia.

The purpose of this study is to provide a systematic review of the nonpharmacological interventions of ADL improvement for dementia published in foreign journals for the past 10 years, and to provide general information on nonpharmacological interventions and effective intervention methods to dementia expert in clinical practice. We searched published studies in the Medline Complete, PubMed Central, and Scopus databases from January 2007 to November 2016. The main keywords used "Dementia AND (ADL OR Activities of daily living) AND Nonpharmacological interventions" and total of 9 studies were selected for analysis from 974 searched articles. The level of evidence were belonged to 3 each studies in I~III level. The mostly provided nonpharmacological interventions were exercise, the study field was variety of areas including rehabilitation(occupational therapy, physical therapy), nursing, and psychology. The Barthel Index(BI) was most frequently used assessment tools to evaluate basic activities of daily living, Cognition was most dependent variables measured with the ADL. Through this study, we provided evidence for the understanding of nonpharmacological interventions of ADL improvement for dementia. In the future, based on this study, helpful intervention needed for ADL training.
