Brief summary
The goal of this study is to observe the outcomes of a semantic recognition task in Alzheimer Disease and discuss what this might add to clinical practice.
Detailed description
In classical memory testing procedures, the outcomes of recognition task is related to hippocampal memory deficits knowing that the recognition task is not purely temporal lobe activity. The aim of this study is to propose a recognition task more specific to temporal lobe activity.
Interventions

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Semantic Recognition Task | 1 day | The number of correct answers will be observed just after the short-term learning procedure and just after the delayed recall procedure among people with positive biomarker compared to those with negative biomarker to Alzheimer Disease. |
