Undifferentiation of somatic responses to emotions in a case of functional amnesia.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Apathy and reduced emotion-based decision-making are two behavioral modifications independently described in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI). OBJECTIVES:The aims of this study were to investigate decision-making based on emotional feedback processing in AD and aMCI and...
