Declarations
:
: All methods were performed in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki [] and the recommendation of Alzheimer Europe on involving people with dementia in research []. Furthermore, we received ethical approval from the local Ethics Committee of the University Medical Center Rostock (A 2022 − 0199). In agreement with the recommendation of Alzheimer Europe [], all participants gave their informed consent independently in an oral or written way. Besides the informed consent, we ensured ongoing consent before and during the discussion. We informed the participants that participation was voluntary and written data would be pseudonymised. Additionally, we made data inaccessibly to third parties. The participation was free of risk, all participants were able to consent independently and only few sociodemographic data (background, occupation, sex) were collected. Therefore, we obtained informed, oral consent from our participants. In agreement with the Declaration of Helsinki [], we ensured ongoing consent of our participants during the discussion.
