Summary

Up to 50% of patients affected with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) can show behavioral dysfunctions within the spectrum of frontotemporal degenerations (FTD) - namely, apathy, disinhibition, loss of sympathy/empathy, perseverative and stereotyped behaviours, dietary changes \[Strong et al., 2017\].

The Beaumont Behavioural Inventory (BBI) \[Elamin et al., 2017\] is a questionnaire designed for detecting FTD-spectrum behavioural changes in ALS patients. The present study aims at both validating the BBI in an Italian ALS population and determining normative cut-off values of the instrument.
