Do Past Experiences Predict Agitation in Nursing Home Residents?
Cohen-Mansfield, Jiska; Marx, Marcia S.
International Journal of Aging and Human Development, v28 n4 p285-94 1989
Examined relationships between agitated behavior and past personality in 408 nursing home residents. Agitated and nonaggressive behaviors were correlated with past stressful events, and physically aggressive behavior was correlated with the lack thereof; no relationships were found between agitated behavior and history of a mental disorder or past leisure habits.
