This has hindered consideration of these subjective cognitive difficulties as a risk factor for AD. However, accumulating evidence points to dissociations between specific depressive symptoms (i.e., apathy, affective or mood symptoms, and others), with some suggestion that apathy is particularly predictive of and more proximate to AD and may drive the relationship between depressive symptomatology and AD. This study examines whether apathy drives the association between depressive symptoms and subjective cognitive complaints (SCC).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>151 cognitively normal older adults (68% female, mean age 73\u00a0\u00b1\u00a07\u00a0years) completed a 20\u2010item SCC questionnaire, the Apathy Evaluation Scale, and the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Depressive symptoms (per GDS) were significantly associated with SCC (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u00a0=\u00a00.008).
