Self-reported personality traits are prospectively associated with proxy-reported behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia at the end of life

International Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry Sep 08, 2017

Sutin AR, et al. – This research investigated if the self-reported personality traits could determine who was most at risk for behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD), in Alzheimer's disease at the end of life. It was concluded that self-reported personality, especially Neuroticism, was associated prospectively with risk for a wide range of behavioral symptoms for people who had cognitive impairment at the end of life. The use of self-reported personality traits could help aid in distinguishing who is most at risk for behavioral symptoms. Such information could be helpful for nonpharmacological interventions tailored to the individual's personality to lessen the prevalence and burden of this BPSD.
