“…V pokročilom štádiu jedinci s Alzheimerovým ochorením nepoznávajú svojich blízkych a dochádza k výraznej poruche komunikácie s okolím [11]. Podľa Majlesiho a Ekströma [12] je Alzheimerové ochorenie niekedy ťažké odlíšiť od ostatných typov demencie, nakoľko mnohé príznaky sú rovnaké. Demencia je totiž vo všeobecnosti spájaná s patologickými zmenami kognitívnych funkcií, ako je napr.…”

“…This research suggests that language and communication deficits cannot simply be described by reference to the disease, as they may actually result from the social interaction in which they occur (7). Recently, research in social interaction that involves persons with dementia has increased (12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18). The approaches are multi-modal in the sense that the studies concern how persons with dementia as any other participant in interaction employ all available resources, e.g.…”

Corresponding author: Gitte Rasmussen, email: gitter@sdu.dk terms of preparing food, cooking, and dining are co-managed by professional caregivers and people with dementia in a home environment, a residential care home, and a day care centre in Sweden.The multi-modal analyses demonstrate how the timely availability of an object, e.g. a colander, a pot, cooking ingredients, is crucial for the management of the activities in which the object should be used. This point is substantiated by analyses of how difficulties in managing the sequential order of such activities may occur by reference to when and where the object is put in place for use in the activity. Furthermore, the paper demonstrates how such troubles are solved by arranging and rearranging the working space by repositioning the object and by providing timely instructions concerning its use. Samuelsson and Ekström (this volume), "Digital communication support in interaction involving people with dementia" addresses the question of whether conversations between persons with dementia and professional caregivers, in this case in Sweden, may be enhanced through digital communication support. The authors study and compare how conversations unfold without communication support, and how they unfold when co-conversationalists draw upon digitalized communication support with generic content that is provided through photos, videos and sound files or personalized content which is provided through photos and videos. The comparative analyses of these conversations are based on video-recordings. The authors supplement these analyses with semi-structured interviews to get insights into the co-conversationalist descriptions of their experiences with having conversations with and without digitalized communication support. The study concludes that the two types of communication support result in more symmetrical conversations as compared to non-supported conversations, as they enhance the possibilities of persons with dementia to take initiative, initiate new topics and maintain conversation, all of which is challenged in conversations without support. The positive results are supported by the descriptions of the co-conversationalists, and so the study points to possible solutions to communicative challenges in rehabilitation and person-centered care.

“…Hydén, 2011;Wood, Bruner & Ross, 1976). People with dementia can participate in rather advanced joint activities by making use of the cognitive and linguistic resources of a coparticipant, particularly in terms of planning and carrying out an activity such as cooking (Hydén, 2014;Majlesi & Ekström, 2016).…”

“…Majlesi and Ekström (2016) conducted a case study on video-recorded collaboration in a couple living with dementia, exemplified in the joint activity of baking. Not only did the spouse without dementia enable participation for the spouse with dementia through verbal and non-verbal instructions and supervision, the spouse with dementia actively made use of his/her environment and collaborative partner to participate in the activity.…”

“…Not only did the spouse without dementia enable participation for the spouse with dementia through verbal and non-verbal instructions and supervision, the spouse with dementia actively made use of his/her environment and collaborative partner to participate in the activity. For instance, the spouse with dementia recurrently asked questions about the instructions, showing skilful interactional competence and an ability to compensate for the challenges of dementia (Majlesi & Ekström, 2016).…”
