Abstract
Reminiscence groups have been used successfully in several types of elder-care settings. This article is a study of the use of reminiscence groups with confused elderly residents of nursing centers in an attempt to improve the quality of subjects' social behaviors. Results partially supported the hypotheses. Social and demographic data were correlated with improvement or lack of it. The study suggests that the skills of the therapist are an important variable in reminiscence therapy as is true with other types of professional intervention.Keywords
