Abstract
Apathy is a frequent finding in both acute and chronic neurological conditions, and it is defined as a general reduction in motivation, as manifested by reduced goal-directed behaviours, cognitions, and emotions. This chapter reviews the frequency, diagnostic process, clinical correlates, and treatment of apathy in Alzheimer’s disease and traumatic brain injury, as examples of relevant chronic neurodegenerative and acute conditions, respectively.
