Abstract/Notes: In two independent experiments, the performance of 4-year-old children drawn from Montessori classrooms was compared with that of children attending traditional preschools. It was speculated that the Montessori children might excel in social cognitive reasoning and in memory—both indirect consequences of the cognitive skills targeted by the curriculum. In Experiment 1, there were three social cognitive tasks—referential communication, speech differentiation, and identifying emotions. In Experiment 2, there were two memory problems—recognition of logically related objects, and free recall. There was no evidence of a difference in the level of performance of children from the two types of schools on social cognitive tasks, and both groups recoded messages more effectively to explicit requests from the listener than to implicit ones. For memory, the Montessori children excelled on the recognition problem, but there was no difference between groups on free recall. It was concluded that the Montessori curriculum does influence cognitive development beyond the narrow bounds of the cognitive skills ostensibly taught in the classroom, but the impact is greatest where there is a close relation between the specific concepts learned in class and the skill in question.

Abstract/Notes: Montessori for Dementia and Ageing (MDA) is a philosophy to support person-centered care (PCC) and autonomy of older adults. This quality improvement project documented outcomes of implementation of the MDA philosophy in a long-term care memory neighborhood. After an initial training session, MDA was implemented with weekly, 2-hour on-site coaching sessions over the course of two semesters (28 weeks) with a community of 20 female persons living with dementia (PWD). Primary outcomes were negative responsive behaviors of PWD, whereas the secondary outcome included percentage of active engagement of PWD. Mean number of negative responsive behaviors was 62.21 at baseline, which decreased to 33.82 at the end of the project per the Cohen-Mansfield Agitation Inventory. At baseline, PWD were actively engaged in 18.15% of observed opportunities, according to the Engage portion of the Resident-Centered Assessment of Interactions with Staff and Engagement Tool. At the end of the project, PWD were actively engaged in 40.56% of observed opportunities. Results suggest that MDA is feasible to implement PCC in a long-term care memory neighborhood.
