Is there a psychological name for blurting, becoming passive aggressive, raging or demanding unrealistic boundaries with others in the dementia spectrum?

@captainoftheship your question is somewhat vague but sounds like you are describing behavioral and cognitive changes that occur with changes to the frontal lobe, which controls and filters our ability to not react impulsively. So you may see more verbal “blurting out” and emotional dysregulation ( raging, mood swings), and inappropriate behaviors ( boundaries). Not sure if this is what you are describing but there is not one term to describe these multiple behaviors.
