“…Prevalence rates of 6-21% (PA) (Isaksson et al, 2011) and 11-30% (vocalizations) (Beck et al, 2011) have been reported in nursing homes. Several correlates have been described for PA and vocalizations, such as higher age (Beck et al, 2011;Voyer et al, 2005), more dementia severity (Liljegren, Landqvist Waldo, & Englund, 2018;Voyer et al, 2005), psychotropic drug use (PDU) (Isaksson et al, 2011;Voyer et al, 2005), and positive associations with other neuropsychiatric symptoms, e.g. depression and psychotic disorders (Bourbonnais & Ducharme, 2008;Leonard, Tinetti, Allore, & Drickamer, 2006), whereas conflicting results have been found for sex (Beck et al, 2011;Isaksson et al, 2011;Voyer et al, 2005).…”
