Abstract

Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADL) are necessary for independent functioning in society (Sikkes et al., 2009). Neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) may produce functional impairments. The Mild Behavioral Impairment checklist (MBI-C) is an instrument to valuate neurobehavioral symptoms on the following domains: decreased motivation, emotional dysregulation, and impulse dyscontrol, social inappropriateness and abnormal perception or thought content (Ismail et al., 2017). Our objective was to explore the role of NPS predicting IADL in the continuum from normal aging to Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI).
