This paper then highlights possible directions for future research by developing research propositions relating to the impact of person-based pay and the conditions likely to affect the nature of that impact.
The debate about the impact of person or situation on intraindividual variations of behaviour and psychological states resulted in the interactionist paradigm.
This systematic review evaluates the evidence for an impact of person-centered interventions on aged-care residents and nursing staff.
Forming accurate conclusions about the impact of person-centered interventions on residents and staff is hampered by the heterogeneity of the interventions and significant methodological differences between studies.
On the other hand, the WHO Report 2008 [ 38] underlines the impact of person-based care in health improvement, quality of life, user trust and treatment adherence.
The purpose of this review was to evaluate the impact of person-centered care approaches on residents and staff in residential aged-care facilities.
26, 32, 33 Two of these facility-specific approaches 26, 32 evaluated the impact of person-centered interventions on organizational and workplace characteristics in addition to residents' wellbeing.
26, 28, 32 Rigorous evaluation of the impact of person-centered approaches on aged-care residents has not been a priority among operators of aged-care facilities, nor of researchers and gerontologists.
The complexity of the interventions and range of outcomes examined makes it difficult to form accurate conclusions about the impact of person-centered care interventions adopted and implemented in aged-care facilities.
The studies in this review incorporated a range of different outcome measures (ie, dependent variables) to evaluate the impact of person-centered interventions on aged-care residents and staff.
To date, six quasi-experimental studies have evaluated the impact of person-centered interventions on aged-care residents and/or nursing staff, and their findings have been published in peer-reviewed journals.
