Article Abstract

Objective: Conceptualize successful treatment of persons with dementia and severe challenging behavior as perceived by professionals.

Methods: In this concept mapping study 82 experts in dementia care participated. The study followed two phases of data collection: (1) an online brainstorm where participants completed the focus prompt: '; (2) individual sorting and rating of the collected statements followed by data analysis using multidimensional scaling and hierarchical cluster analysis, resulting in a concept map.

Results: Three clusters were identified, the first addressing treatment outcomes and the latter two addressing treatment processes, each divided into sub-clusters: (1) comprising and ; (2) , comprising and and (3) , comprising and .

Conclusions: Successful treatment in people with dementia and severe challenging behavior focuses on well-being of all people involved wherein attention to treatment processes including process conditions is essential to achieve this.
