    We describe the observations and resultant galaxy cluster catalog from the 2770 deg2 SPTpol Extended Cluster Survey (SPT-ECS). Clusters are identified via the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect and confirmed with a combination of archival and targeted follow-up data, making particular use of data from the Dark Energy Survey (DES). With incomplete follow-up we have confirmed as clusters 244 of 266 candidates at a detection significance ξ ≥ 5 and an additional 204 systems at 4 4 threshold, and 10% of their measured SZ flux. We associate SZ-selected clusters, from both SPT-ECS and the SPT-SZ survey, with clusters from the DES redMaPPer sample, and we find an offset distribution between the SZ center and central galaxy in general agreement with previous work, though with a larger fraction of clusters with significant offsets. Adopting a fixed Planck-like cosmology, we measure the optical richness-SZ mass (l - M) relation and find it to be 28% shallower than that from a weak-lensing analysis of the DES data-a difference significant at the 4σ level-with the relations intersecting at λ = 60. The SPT-ECS cluster sample will be particularly useful for studying the evolution of massive clusters and, in combination with DES lensing observations and the SPT-SZ cluster sample, will be an important component of future cosmological analyses

However, studies about the influence of premorbid personality on aggressive behavior of older persons with dementia show contradictory results. In this study we gathered data on personality and behavior of 166 residents of psychogeriatric nursing homes. Nursing staff filled out the Cohen-Mansfield Agitation Inventory (Dutch version, CMAI-D). Proxy family members completed the Hetero Anamnestic Personality questionnaire (HAP). Results showed that on the CMAI-D aggression could be distinguished from other forms of agitation. Four subscales of the HAP showed significant positive correlations with aggression as measured with the CMAI-D. These subscales were: Antagonism, Whimsical and impulsive behavior, Rigid behavior, and Being vulnerable in social interactions. Although the influence of personality decreased with increasing cognitive impairment, it was still present in stage 6 of the Reisberg Global Deterioration Scale. In depth analysis items of the HAP revealed a first profile of the aggression prone personality.1 juni 201
