Bass BA, Greger LM. (1996). Stimulus complexity in reminiscence therapy and scores on the Beck Depression Inventory of a small group of nursing-home residents. Percept Mot Skills, 82(3 Pt 1):973-4.

A pilot study of the efficacy of groups given single and multistimulus reminiscence therapy versus no treatment controls gave no significant effect in reducing depression in 12 nursing-home residents 68.5 yr. of age. However, the data indicate that effectiveness of treatment was likely attenuated by including participants with dementia.
