In order to achieve the early diagnosis of dementia, the following researches were implemented:
(1) investigation and research of dementia abroad
(2) proposal of dementia diagnostic technology of international standards,and
(3) recommendations of dementia social measures
Through cooperation with co-worker and dementia-related foreign researchers, the cognitive experiments on dementia have been carried out and the results have also been discussed. Particularly, significant differences were found about tactile cognitive function between dementia patients and healthy elderly individuals. These results could be valid in the early diagnosis of dementia. Based on the network that was constructed according to our studies and results, the preparation for international large-scale experiments could continue to advance.
