Hi there,
My name is Josh Fergen and I am reaching out from the Memory Keepers Medical Discovery Team at the University of Minnesota Medical School.
As part of our research on Alzheimer’s Disease and related dementias, we’re conducting a study to better understand how caregivers of people living with dementia, or those who assist in care, use Reddit communities like this one. We are interested in learning about your experiences using the subreddits r/dementia and r/dementia, including how these online spaces support you in your caregiving role. You must be 18 years or older and living in the U.S. to participate.
You will be asked some basic demographic questions, distance to care and services, and engagement with these subreddits. This 20-question survey is anonymous, and these responses will help us understand how online communities support dementia caregivers.
How to participate: Just click on the Qualtrics survey link below!

If you have any questions about this study, feel free to reach out and message me -

Thank you so much for your time!
Josh
