“…However, the method allowed for the exploration of core themes prior to undertaking a quantitative analysis, as the DPI approach is a new intervention. This research strategy is consistent with the Medical Research Council (MRC) framework (Milne et al., 2008) regarding the exploration of new interventions, dovetails with the staff-training recommendation (Banerjee, 2009) and supports the objective of optimising an effective workforce for people with dementia in care homes stated in the National Dementia Strategy (2009). Of note, the next phase of the investigation of Danzón psychomotor intervention has already commenced using a multiple-baseline single-case research (Guzmán-García et al., in preparation), and the methodology for this has been informed by the findings of the present study.…”

The objective of the study was to investigate the effect of introducing a dance-based psychomotor intervention using Danzón (Latin ballroom) for people with dementia in care homes. This was a grounded theory qualitative study. Thirteen of the 22 participants had dementia and were care-home residents. The remaining participants were care staff and facilitators of the dance sessions. Interviews were undertaken with seven people with dementia and nine staff, resulting in two separate sets of grounded theory methodologies. Two conceptual models, outlining positive outcomes and negative concerns of the use of Danzón were developed, depicting the experiences of people with dementia and care staff respectively. Danzón psychomotor intervention was found to enhance positive emotional states and general levels of satisfaction for both people with dementia and care staff. The details of these findings have been used to design a quantitative study.

“…In a longitudinal qualitative study completed concurrently with this review, we have studied Danzón Latin Ballroom based on psychomotor dance‐based exercise using multiple‐baseline single‐case study methodology. The results of this study (paper in preparation) were built on preceding theoretical, qualitative and modelling work (Guzmán‐García et al ., , ) as suggested by the Medical Research Council (Campbell et al ., ; Milne et al ., ). Furthermore, there should be research into the factors that influence the implementation and sustainability of dancing, including facilitation by care staff and possible support from family members.…”

The evidence on the efficacy of dancing in care homes is limited in part owing to the methodological challenges facing such research. This review aims to raise awareness of the possibility of implementing dance work as an engaging activity in care homes. We shall also consider options for future dance work research as a means to encourage relationships and sensory stimulation for both residents and staff.

Evidencede rigueur:The shape of evidence in psychological therapies and the modern practitioner as teleoanalyst

During early 2007, the idea for a conference on the psychological therapies began to emerge led by Jeremy Clarke with Michael Barkham and Phil Richardson acting as scientific advisors. Over the course of much of 2007 our plans took shape via multiple three-way phone conversations between London, France and Sheffield, designing the Savoy Conference and compiling a submission to NICE arguing for a change to the restrictive form of evidence underpinning guidance. Each of us was committed to evidence-based practice, but equally clear a more inclusive dialogue was needed to address complexities of scientific methodology in psychological therapies, including use of findings from practice-based evidence. The inaugural Savoy Conference was held on 30 November and 1 December 2007. Phil was too ill to attend but delighted by our success in generating the dialogue and debate we had aimed for. He passed away 3 days later. What follows is our view on what is required to build and develop an inclusive knowledge-base in the psychological therapies, so that scientific discussion, as well as improved clinical practice, and better policy-making can move forwards. We feel these views would have resonated with Phil Richardson.
