Present a Theory/Theoretical Framework
Qualitative case study design with semi-structured interviews will serve as the method and design for this study.
The appropriateness of method and design can be found in the fact that the qualitative case study design will allow for an in-depth exploration of the experiences of women with Alzheimer's disease. This type of study can also shed light on the social and cultural factors that influence the experiences of women with Alzheimer's, such as gender roles, stigma, and access to healthcare. Furthermore, a qualitative study can identify gaps in current healthcare services and support systems for women with Alzheimer's, as well as highlight potential areas for intervention and improvement. It can also generate hypotheses for future quantitative research on the topic.
Semi-structured interviews will provide a flexible and open-ended approach to data collection, allowing participants to freely express their experiences and perspectives. This approach is particularly useful when the focus is on a relatively unexplored topic and a deep understanding of individuals' experiences is sought.
The study aims to explore the experiences of women with Alzheimer's disease in order to better understand their lived experiences, challenges, and needs. The chosen qualitative case study design and semi-structured interviews align with the research questions and purpose of the study by allowing for an in-depth exploration of the topic. What are the experiences of women with...…with participants in a private and comfortable setting. Data analysis will involve a thematic analysis of interview transcripts to identify common themes and patterns in participants' experiences.
The theory of illness narratives can be coupled with the theoretical framework that will also be used in this study, which is tje social-ecological framework. This framework will allow for deeper understanding of the various individual, interpersonal, community, and societal factors that women with Alzheimers must navigate. All of these factors contribute in some way to health, and can be seen also from the standpoint of holistic care. The social-ecological framework can be used to guide the analysis of the literature and to identify potential areas…

Bronfenbrenner Ecological Model Comment by Sabina: Bronfenbrenner's Ecological System Theory is about a child's development within the context of relationships in the child's life. Bronfenbrenner's theory is based on different complex layers of the child's environment, with each different layer impacting and affecting the development of the child. In this model of child development the microsystem and mesosystem are both important influential factors in the development of the child. The microsystem and

Applying Social-Ecological Model Social-Ecological ModelSocial-Ecological Model looks into a comprehensive interplay between individual, community, relationship, and social factors. It provides us with the knowledge of several factors that exposes people to violence or protect them from perpetrating or experiencing violence. Rings that overlap over the other are used in the model to demonstrate how aspects at a particular stage influence aspects on different levels (CDC, 2016). In addition, the model

ECOLOGICAL BEHAVIOR MODEL & BEHAVIOR MODIFICATION TECHNIQUES Special Education The behavior management technique that the teacher along with the assistant used was a form of negative reinforcement and punishment. When Megan displayed disruptive behaviors, she was likely spoken to, in some form of warning, and then removed from the activity, that despite her disruptive behavior, it was an activity in which she actually wanted to participate. The technique planned reinforced her behavior,
