correlated with the informant’s report for the total FrSBe (Spearman’s Rho 1⁄4 -0.701, p <0.001), for apathy (Spearman’s Rho 1⁄4 -0.644, p <0.001) and for executive functions (Spearman’s Rho 1⁄4 -0.703, p <0.001). Disinhibition did not reach a significant correlation with cognitive performance, however surprisingly; we found a significant difference between the groups for this item when comparing previous reports to cognitive decline (p1⁄40.003). Conclusions:Preliminary data suggests that there is correlation between behavioural changes related to frontal lobe functioning, cognitive decline and dementia in people with DS.
