Reliability of Chinese Version of Verbal Learning Test and Selective Reminding Test

August 2, 2019 updated by: Yea-Ru Yang, National Yang Ming University

Test-retest Reliability of the Chinese Version of the Verbal Learning Test and Selective Reminding Test Among People With Mild Cognitive Impairment

Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is distinguished from healthy aging by cognitive difficulties that are greater than expected for one's age and education. Amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) is a major sub-type of MCI with noticeable impairments in memory. Approximately 12% of aMCI will progress to AD per year. There are two test to evaluate the effects on memory, but both without Chinese version. This study is to know the test-retest reliability of the Chinese version of the Verbal learning test and Selective reminding test among people with mild cognitive impairment.

Study Population

Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is distinguished from healthy aging by cognitive difficulties that are greater than expected for one's age and education. Amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) is a major sub-type of MCI with noticeable impairments in memory. Approximately 12% of aMCI will progress to AD per year. Guidelines for MCI recommended: controlling vascular risk factors and focusing on behavioral interventions.
