Resumo(s)
Although there is a growing body of literature on the Alzheimer’s
disease (AD) personality changes, its relationships with personality
disorders are still largely understudied. The relationships between
the Five-Factor Model and the Axis II personality disorders were
explored in the context of current and baseline personality in AD.
The study was conducted with four groups who were administered
the NEO-FFI and the PDQ-4+, mainly in interview sessions. Self-report
measurement: AD Group, 40 female participants (M = 81.48 years);
Control Group, 47 female participants from the population at large (M
= 76.81 years). Baseline retrospective measurement: AD Group
Informants (n = 40); Control Group Informants (n = 47). Three logistic
regressions were computed. The baseline Neuroticism moderates the
Neuroticism in the current clinical state. High Neuroticism, low
Openness, high Cluster B, and baseline high Neuroticism, predicted
the presence of AD diagnosis, accounting for 85% of the variance. In
order to increase sensitivity towards an earlier diagnosis in AD, future
empirically-based research should take into account an assessment
set of structural personality variables.
