To compare the performances between persons suspected with dementia and matched controls. To compare the performance between persons diagnosed with and suspected to have dementia.
Objectives: Background: It is believed that the brain represents the body’s largest sexual organ. While sexual dysfunction is a commonly overlooked complication after damage to the spinal cord, the brain and hence the person’s most important sexual organ should remain intact. Nevertheless, majority of patients suffering from spinal cord dysfunction remain to suffer from sexual dissatisfaction, leading to impaired body image, low self-esteem, marital discord, and family breakdown.
To check effect of age, gender and level of education on three groups.
Objective: This study examines whether cerebral function related to sexual arousal differs significantly between individuals with and without spinal cord dysfunction.
The Cognitive Linguistic protocol developed in a previous study by Nagree (2012) was used to evaluate the participants in this study across various domains.
Methods: We employ the mixed-methods study design: 1) choice reaction time task experiment, 2) “think aloud” protocol, and 3) focus group discussion. Quantitatively, we measure the time elapsed between the onset of implicit and explicit sexual images presented on a computer screen and the correct identification of the participant. Qualitatively, we describe the verbal comments, facial expressions, and body language of the participant during the experiment using the videotaped “think aloud” protocol, and compare similarities and differences in the sexual experience of participants in a focus group discussion.
Results: Statistical analysis was done to compare the performance between: diagnosed dementia and their matched controls, suspected dementia and their matched controls,diagnosed and suspected dementia groups. A significant difference was found in the performance of diagnosed dementia and controls on cognitive tasks (p
