Using Randomised Controlled Trial to Investigate Reminiscence Therapy in Improvement of Elderly Quality of Life: A Case of Wakiso District

Abstract

Introduction: Reminiscence is the act of recollecting past experiences or events. An example of the typical use of the reminiscence is when a person shares his personal stories with others or allows other people to live vicariously through stories of family, friends, and acquaintances. It involves sharing thoughts and feelings of one's experiences to recall and reflect upon important events within one's life. The ability to recall and reflect helps older adults remember who they used to be in order to help them define their identity in the current moment.
