Summary

This study looks at how social and emotional thinking skills relate to everyday behavior in people with Alzheimer's disease and similar conditions. Researchers will give 120 participants tests of social cognition and ask their study partners to complete behavior checklists. They will also use brain scans to see which brain areas are involved. The goal is to better understand why some people have social behavior changes, which could guide future support strategies.
