  Extending Context–Mechanism–Outcome Theory for Digital Dementia Risk-Reduction Education: A Realist-Informed Conceptual Framework for Future Theory Development
  Author(s): Peter Carey*
  
  Background: Dementia prevention has emerged as a global public health priority, with growing evidence indicating that a substantial proportion of dementia cases may be delayed or prevented through modification of life-course risk factors. Despite this expanding epidemiological evidence base, translating knowledge into sustained behavioural change remains a persistent challenge. Digital dementia risk-reduction education offers unprecedented opportunities to increase public access to evidence-based prevention information; however, existing approaches frequently emphasise information delivery rather than explaining the processes through which individuals interpret, internalise, and act upon that information. Objective: This paper examines the theoretical foundations of Context–Mechanism–Outcome (CMO) reasoning within realist evaluat.. Read More»
