Study Summary
Reminiscence therapy is a non-invasive, non-pharmacological intervention that has been shown to improve cognition, mood, functional status, quality of life, and apathy in older adults. Group reminiscence therapy combines structured social engagement and recounting of personal stories that address both social connection (a risk factor for cognitive decline) and cognition. Life story club© (LSC) is an established, non-profit organization that provides virtual, group reminiscence therapy for older adults to reduce loneliness and promote a sense of belonging and has not been formally studied.
Primary Outcome
Loneliness will be assessed using the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) Loneliness Scale questionnaire. The UCLA Loneliness Scale is a 20-item measure that assesses how often a person feels disconnected from others. Participants provide responses using a 4-point Likert scale where 1 = never; 2 = rarely; 3 = sometimes; 4 = always, for an overall possible scoring range of 20-80, such that higher scores are associated with increased loneliness.
