AB  - PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to test the psychometric properties of the 
      Neurobehavior Inventory (NBI) in a group of temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) patients 
      from a tertiary care center, correlating its scores with the presence of 
      psychiatric symptoms. METHODS: Clinical and sociodemographic data from ninety-six 
      TLE outpatients were collected, and a neuropsychiatric evaluation was performed 
      with the following instruments: Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), structured 
      psychiatric interview (MINI-PLUS), Neurobehavior Inventory (NBI), and Hamilton 
      Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D). RESULTS: Some traits evaluated by the NBI showed 
      adequate internal consistency (mean inter-item correlation between 0.2 and 0.4) 
      and were frequent, such as religiosity (74%) and repetitiveness (60.4%). 
      Principal component analysis showed three factors, named here as emotions (Factor 
      1), hyposexuality (Factor 2), and unusual ideas (Factor 3). Depressive symptoms 
      on HAM-D showed a strong association with emotions and hyposexuality factors. 
      When patients with left TLE and right TLE were compared, the former exhibited 
      more sadness (p=0.017), and the latter, a greater tendency toward sense of 
      personal destiny (p=0.028). CONCLUSION: Depression influences NBI scoring, mainly 
      emotionality and hyposexuality traits. Neurobehavior Inventory subscales can be 
      better interpreted with an appropriate evaluation of comorbid mood and anxiety 
      disorders. Compromise in left temporal mesial structures is associated with 
      increased tendency toward sad affect, whereas right temporal pathology is 
      associated with increased beliefs in personal destiny.
