   Proposal Description:
   Aim: To determine the frequency of probable RBD across racial/ethnic groups and  diagnoses in the NACC    We seek to determine the frequency of probable RBD (based on a positive  responses on RBD questions - particularly A5 q5j, B9 q9h, D2 q15) across  racial/ethnic groups (A1 fields) and diagnoses (D1 fields). These data will  likely assist in determining recruitment strategies for identifying minority  participants with RBD for a new NIH-funded program (NAPS2) focused on RBD.    If possible, a subset of this dataset among those who have had the LBD Module  completed would also be valuable if those who have any ???yes??  responses on  q1 of form E3L could be designated - even if done as a separate file.
