Dementia, Mild, Dementia of Alzheimer Type
Conditions
Brief summary
The present project is an evolution of the previous RIN 2019 study aimed at validating and standardizing the Uniform Data Set (UDS) for dementia, a battery of tests exploring various cognitive domains (memory, language, praxis, executive functions) and involving partial tablet-based computerization for data collection. In the present study, a UDS-based instrument that can be used in remote examiner-assisted telematic administration will be validated. This will be followed by standardization of the same on a sample of healthy subjects.
