EYE-TAR(AD+) is an observational study based on the same design as the princeps EYE-TAR(MA) study, but with a larger number of patients and including an additional evaluation of Facial emotion recognition (based on a more ecological material), in order to reinforce conclusions of the study EYE-TAR(MA) https://doi.org/10.1016/j.npg.2020.08.003. The main objective is to confirm that facial emotion recognition can be improved in AD using the "Training of Affect Recognition program" (TAR). The Secondary Objectives are to: Evaluate the impact of the "Training of Affect Recognition program" (TAR) on oculomotor behavior in a situation of social cognition, on behavioral disorders and on caregiver burden. Confirm that improvement in facial emotion recognition is related to modification of observation strategies. Confirm the link between improved recognition of facial emotions, reduced behavioral disorders and caregiver burden.
