Abstract

Highlights: Psychometric properties of the Apathy Evaluation Scale-informant version in PSP. T he clinical correlates of apathy in PSP patients are described. The AES-I is a reliable and valid tool for the assessment of apathetic symptoms. Apathy may represent a marker of worse cognitive impairment at follow-up in PSP. The standardization of apathy studies in PSP is useful for diagnosis and intervention.
