“…The term 'Behavioral and Psychological Symptoms of Dementia' (BPSD) has been used to subsume a multitude of common behavior problems associated with dementia, including problems with memory, disorientation, restlessness, mood, aggression, and sleep (Aneshensel, Pearlin, Mullan, Zarit, & Whitlatch, 1995;Burgio, 1996;Garand, Buckwalter, & Hall, 2000;Kirby & Lawlor, 1995;Pruchno & Resch, 1989;Swearer, 1994). While many aspects of caring for someone with dementia have been found to be stressful (Pearlin, Mullan, Semple, & Skaff, 1990), past research has found that behavior problems in dementia are more stressful for caregivers than dealing with the cognitive impairment or the need for assistance with activities of daily living Kinney & Stephens, 1989).…”
