Scientific Review of Dementia and Alzheimer's disease from the Perspective of Psychology

The amnesia disease was first recognized by the German doctor Alois Alzheimer in ۱۹۰۷ and its pathological changes were described on the patients, and various studies have been conducted during the last hundred years by researchers and experts in this field, which led to the identification of ambiguous points and many treatment methods have been defined for its patients. Today, with the studies conducted, researchers have come to the conclusion that people's lifestyle affects the development of Alzheimer's disease, and the impact of this disease through heredity is also one of the researchers' predictions for dealing with the next generations of these families. In some countries, this disease has become more prevalent and the most important reasons are depression in old age, high blood pressure, heart trouble, more stress and anxiety, diabetes, more iron in the person and his brain, smoking and alcohol consumption. Alzheimer's disease is the most advanced and common type of dementia. Alzheimer's is a type of dementia, although all people with Alzheimer's develop dementia, not all those with dementia have Alzheimer's. The upcoming research tries to give a general introduction of Alzheimer's disease from the point of view of psychology and experts active in this field, and to give a brief introduction of the research done and the treatment methods used.
