Scientific title
Study objectives	Aim: to develop a tailored theory-based intervention to promote appropriate disclosure of diagnosis of dementia. As of 28/07/09 this record has been updated. All updates can be found in under the relevant fiels with the above update date.
Ethics approval(s)	Added as of 28/07/09: 1. Multi-Centre Research Ethics Committee for Scotland 2. Research and Development offices of the participating NHS trusts
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied	Dementia
Intervention	A theory-based survey of mental health teams will identify factors that are (a) modifiable and (b) the best predictors of behavioural intention. As there will be a range of these factors with these characteristics, we will select from them those factors which, in addition, can be modified by an intervention that is feasible. Then we shall select the three most promising interventions and simulate delivering them within a trial and examine their effects. There will be a fourth control (no intervention) arm.
