Summary
This study looked at how apathy (lack of motivation) relates to different types of fatigue in older adults with mild cognitive issues. Researchers compared 30 apathetic and 27 non-apathetic participants aged 65-85. Participants wore activity trackers for a week and completed tests and questionnaires to measure fatigue, motivation, and physical effort. The goal was to better understand the connection between apathy and fatigue, not to test a treatment.
