In the affective empathy-related ratings, the OC-group showed a negativity bias, rating negative (vs. positive) emotions higher, although not associated with hormone levels. Mimic responses were not modulated by hormone-status group or related to hormone levels. Skin-conductance responses to negative pictures were heightened in the LC-group and correlated positively with progesterone levels. These data suggest a differential impact of female sex hormones on emotional processing, i.e., empathy-related performance and affective sympathetic reactivity, but not in emotional memory or affective mimic reactivity.Self and proxy reported questionnaires indicate that people living with a neurodegenerative disease (NDD) have more difficulties with financial decision-making (FDM) than healthy controls. Self-reports, however, rely on adequate insight into everyday functioning and might, therefore, be less reliable. The present study provides a comprehensive overview and meta-analysis of studies evaluating FDM in people living with an NDD. For this, the reliability of performance-based tests to consistently identify FDM difficulties in people living with an NDD compared to healthy controls is evaluated. Furthermore, the associations between FDM and disease severity, performances on standard measures of cognition and demographics are evaluated. All 47 included articles, consistently reported lower performances on performance-based FDM tests of people living with an NDD (including Alzheimer's disease, mild cognitive impairment, frontotemporal dementia, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis or Huntington's disease) compared to healthy controls. The majority of studies, however, focused on Alzheimer's disease and mild cognitive impairment (k = 38). FDM performance appears to be related to cognitive declin
