Data presented as mean ± standard deviation. Greater or more positive numbers indicate more severe behavioral symptoms. P-values refer to one-way ANOVA between controls, premanifest, and manifest groups.

N = number of participants; LARS-s = Lille Apathy Rating Scale, short-from; PBA-s = Problem Behavior Assessment, short-form.

P-values retained significance after false discovery rate correction (q = 0.05).

a

Cut-off for clinically relevant global apathetic syndromes is defined as a total LARS-s score > −7 (Dujardin et al., 2013).

b

Subscale computed from the LARS-s.

c

Measured based on ‘apathy’ and ‘affective behavior’ components of factor analysis in Callaghan et al. (2015).
