When someone you love may have Pseudobulbar Affect (PBA), you’re in a special position—the position to make an impact.
PBA happens in people with a brain injury or certain neurologic conditions, but PBA can often be confused with depression. The two are separate conditions with their own symptoms. This 7-question quiz can help determine if you have the symptoms seen with PBA and help you start discussions with your healthcare provider.
The Center for Neurologic Study-Lability Scale (CNS-LS) was developed by healthcare professionals to identify and measure PBA symptoms. It does not diagnose PBA and is not intended to substitute for professional medical assessment and/or advice. Please consult with your doctor.
