By focusing on piecemeal behaviours as opposed to more robust syndrome change valid biological correlates may be overlooked. Our understanding of BPSD via the identification of neuropsychiatric syndromes.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>We recruited 435 subjects from old age psychiatry and elderly care memory outpatient clinics fulfilling the criteria for diagnosis of probable Alzheimer's disease. Behavioural and psychological symptoms were assessed using the Neuropsychiatric Inventory. Principal components factor analysis was carried out on the composite scores of the 12 symptom domains to identify behavioural syndromes (factors). Results were confirmed by performing three different rotations: Varimax, Equamax and Quartimax.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Four factors were identified (which accounted for 57% of the variance): \u2018affect\u2019 factor\u2014depression\/dysphoria, anxiety, irritability\/lability and agitation\/aggression; \u2018physical behaviour\u2019 factor\u2014apathy, aberrant motor behaviour, sleep disturbance and appetite\/eating disturbance; \u2018psychosis\u2019 factor\u2014delusions and hallucinations; \u2018hypomania\u2019 factor\u2014disinhibition and elation\/euphoria.
