Group cognitive stimulation therapy for people with intellectual disability and dementia: Feasibility randomised controlled trial. BJPsych Open, 11(5), e168. https://doi.org/10.1192/bjo.2025.107642056-4724https://hdl.handle.net/11268/16488Group cognitive stimulation therapy (CST) has been shown to improve cognition and quality of life of people with dementia in multiple trials, but there has been scant research involving people with intellectual disability and dementia. This study aimed to assess the feasibility of conducting a randomised controlled trial of group CST for this population. There were multiple challenges including recruitment issues, a large dropout rate before randomisation and practical issues affecting attendance. These issues would need to be addressed before conducting a larger trial.engAttribution 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Group cognitive stimulation therapy for people with intellectual disability and dementia: feasibility randomised controlled trialjournal article10.1192/bjo.2025.10764open accessCiencias médicasPsicología clínicaMedicina preventivaGoal 3: Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all agesGoal 4: Quality educationGoal 10: Reduce inequality within and among countries
