Coping styles & help seeking in dementia research: DETERMIND
12/11/2025 @ 11:30 am - 12:30 pm
“What can coping styles tell us about help seeking in dementia? Findings from DETERMIND” Presented by Isaac Duncan-Cross
Isaac Duncan-Cross is nearing the end of his PhD at the University of Sussex under the supervision of Dr Eleanor Miles and Dr Ben Hicks, focussed on affect regulation and help seeking in people with dementia. His research takes place in collaboration with the DETERMIND Project, a national research initiative focussed on tackling dementia care inequalities in the UK.
Isaac will present the mixed-method findings of his PhD research, looking at the relationship between coping and formal service use in dementia. He will present coping styles as a novel predictor of diagnostic timing in dementia, performing above and beyond pre-established sociodemographic predictors. He will also discuss both coping and help seeking post-diagnosis, as experienced by people with dementia themselves.
