The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) is a widely used screening assessment for detecting cognitive impairment. [1] It was created in 1996 by Ziad Nasreddine in Montreal, Quebec. It was validated in the setting of mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and has subsequently been adopted in numerous other clinical settings. This test consists of 30 ...
The SLUMS is scored on a scale of 1 to 30, with higher scores being associated with greater functional ability, and lower scores associated with greater cognitive impairment. [5] Scoring is dependent on an individual's education level, with higher scores expected for individuals who have received a high school education.
As a result of this, the ASEBA was able to identify more syndromes than originally identified in the DSM-I. [5] Additionally, this reliance on real-world case records allows the ASEBA to interpret scores in relation to age, gender, and ethnic/racial norms, as symptom/disorder severity and meaning vary across cultures.
The ACE-R [1] was a development of the earlier ACE which also incorporated the MMSE, but had clearly defined subdomain scores. The ACE-III [ 6 ] was developed to improve the performance of certain parts of the test and also to avoid a potential copyright violation by replacing the elements shared with the MMSE.
Using a structured-interview protocol developed by Charles Hughes, [1] Leonard Berg, John C. Morris and other colleagues at Washington University School of Medicine, a qualified health professional assesses a patient's cognitive and functional performance in six areas: memory, orientation, judgment & problem solving, community affairs, home & hobbies, and personal care.
The following criteria for interpreting scores of the ATEC are as follows: Total scores of less than 30 at the age of five - Indicate that the child possesses somewhat normal behavior patterns and communication skills and has a high chance of leading a normal and independent life exhibiting minimal ASD symptoms.
The test purports to assess students' acquired reasoning abilities while also predicting achievement scores when administered with the co-normed Iowa Tests. The test was originally published in 1954 as the Lorge-Thorndike Intelligence Test, after the psychologists who authored the first version of it, Irving Lorge and Robert L. Thorndike. [1]
Occasionally the percentile rank of a score is mistakenly defined as the percentage of scores lower than or equal to it [citation needed], but that would require a different computation, one with the 0.5 × F term deleted. Typically percentile ranks are only computed for scores in the distribution but, as the figure illustrates, percentile ...
