| Brief Abstract | In frontotemporal dementia, memory performance on standardized tests is preserved relative to emotional processing. In the present study, we investigate recognition memory for emotional pictures in FTD patients and their age-matched controls. Thus far, recognition of emotional content was worse in FTD. The difference between groups has been smaller for the neutral pictures. Entails testing at a laptop computer. |
