MELBOURNE, Australia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research published in the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease this week suggests healthy older adults are less capable of observing their own cognitive decline over an 18 month period than Cogstate’s computerized brief battery (CBB). The study, conducted by neuropsychologists, also indicated that close family members were unable to perceive decline in the cognitive behavior of their partner and trial participant in social settings.
The findings suggest that early identification of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) may be more accurate when based on objective assessment of cognitive function rather than that reported by individuals or their spouses.
