The care of and research on dementia patients highlights a unique need for understanding and applying the concepts of time and space. This volume, unique in its development of a model for time-space orientation, proposes that understanding the needs of these patients is increased by consideration of the  Idis Rorientation caused by dementia. Included is a review of the history of time and time measurement, a survey of psychological literature using time as a variable across the life span, and a model of time orientation applied to persons who have developed dementia. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eConditions leading to dementia are described, and a rationale proposed for the effects of time\/space disorientation in behavioral disturbances. Suggestions for applications and future research are included. Scholars and researchers interested in time awareness and orientation, as well as professionals in psychology, sociology, and gerontology caring for dementia patients, will find the material here useful.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eALLEN JACK EDWARDS is Emeritus Professor of Psychology at Southwest Missouri State University, Springfield.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 296\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.05 x 9.54 x 6.44 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 30, 2002\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47622627819741,"sku":"9780275975562","price":194.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0811\/9867\/8237\/files\/oiG-aluEUc9780275975562.webp?v=1773683592","url":"https:\/\/handfulofbooks.com\/products\/a-psychology-of-orientation-time-awareness-across-life-stages-and-in-dementia-hardcover","provider":"Handful of Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
