580万美国人患有阿尔茨海默病，而且这个数字还在上升。社会工作可以发挥关键作用。然而，该领域还没有为越来越多的个人和家庭在身体、情感和经济上受到影响做好准备。本混合方法并行研究评估了一项教育活动对来自八个社会工作项目的学生的初步效果。培训前后的调查包括：(a)痴呆症知识，(b)对痴呆症的负面态度。双变量分析显示，知识（平均差值=9.9）和态度（平均差值降低10%）从培训前到培训后有所改善（p< 0.05）。社会工作项目之间的合作可以增加学生获得以力量为基础的痴呆症教育的机会。这样的项目有可能在社会工作领域提高痴呆症的治疗能力。
5.8 million Americans have Alzheimer’s disease, and this number is rising. Social work can play a key role. Yet, the field is ill prepared for the growing number of individuals and families affected physically, emotionally, and financially. This mixed-methods concurrent study assessed the preliminary efficacy of an education event for students from eight social work programs. Pre- to post training survey included: (a) dementia knowledge, and (b) negative attitudes toward dementia. Bivariate analyses showed that knowledge (mean difference=9.9) and attitudes (10% lower) improved from pre- to post training (p<.05). Collaboration between social work programs can increase student access to strength-based dementia education. Such programs hold the potential of improving dementia capability within the field of social work.
