Research journal 2

What is your topic? Or what are your key words thus far?

My topic of research is music and patients with dementia. Specifically the effects (if any significance) of going through a "music therapy" program. 
The key words I'm working with are:
  • music
  • effects
  • dementia 
  • significance
  • music therapy
  • association
  • studies on dementia 
What is your research question? Have you decided to change it at all? And, if you have, how do I know that the way in which this question is formulated is appropriate to conduct a literature review with a systematic approach? 


  • My questions is " does participating in music therapy have any significant benefits to the overall wellness of patients with Dementia?"
The way to look at this question is not to look at the benefits of music to the listener but the significant effects of music to patients who have been selected for a music therapy program who have dementia.
