Study Summary

This study will test feasibility and preliminary effects of an automated and performance-based feedback app (Speeko for Elderspeak) that detects and reports the use of diminutives (terms of endearment such as honey, dearie, and sweetie), prevalent elderspeak terms linked to BPSD. Building on proof of concept established in the laboratory, the app will demonstrate feasibility at the point-of-care. Next, a clinical trial (N= 6NHs) will be conducted to test preliminary efficacy of the app for amplifying reductions in diminutives use for NH staff completing the CHATO training (3 online modules).

Primary Outcome

Diminutive Use per Utterance detected by the Speeko for Elderspeak app. Diminutive data will be compared between the intervention and control groups and within nursing homes. The clinical trial could not be analyzed due to too few participants (COVID-19 Pandemic).
