This dissertation deals with the concept of Sensory Activation, a new approach practised in the Czech Republic focussing on the elderly and people with dementia synrome, in relation to monitored psychological aspects. The work has four main parts. In the first part the target group is defined the elderly and people with dementia syndrome, with emphasis being placed on a holistic approach to treatment. The second part presents selected psychological aspects, specifically communication, emotions, memory and sensory processes and their interconnection with the practice of Sensory Activation. Contained in the following chapter is the concept of Sensory Activation itself and a synopsis of its methods which can be applied in work with the target group. The last chapter presents the results of my research. These results come from an analysis of eight case histories of randomly selected activated people. The full versions of the case histories can be found in the Appendices of this dissertation.
