Il existe de nombreux outils d'évaluation des comportements chez les personnes atteintes de démence ou d'autres handicaps cognitifs qui ne peuvent pas parler. Nombreux sont ces derniers servant à évaluer la douleur, mais il existe peu d'outils pour mesurer l'inconfort ou l'anxiété. Les tests se recoupent en grande partie, mais les approches et les formats peuvent différer considérablement entre les différents outils et types d'outils. La comparaison entre un outil destiné à évaluer la douleur tel que le Pain Assessment in Advanced dementia (PAINAD) et un document sur l'anxiété tel que le Disability Distress Assessment Tool (DisDAT) démontre que les signes et les comportements prêtent à différentes interprétations.
