A Serious Game for Clinical Assessment of Cognitive Status: Validation Study

Abstract: BackgroundWe propose the use of serious games to screen for abnormal cognitive status in situations where it may be too costly or impractical to use standard cognitive assessments (eg, emergency departments). If validated, serious games in health care could enable broader availability of efficient and engaging cognitive screening.ObjectiveThe objective of this work is to demonstrate the feasibility of a game-based cognitive assessment delivered on tablet technology to a clinical sample and to conduct prelimina… Show more

“…In related work we have also begun the process of validating our game-based scrreening tool by establishing that game median RT is significant correlated with standard clinical assessments such as the MMSE, and MoCA (Tong et al, 2016). Taken together, the present work and our previous study demonstrate that our serious game for cognitive assessment has good levels of both concurrent validity and test-retest reliability.…”

“…For cognitive assessment, the reliability of game RT is of most interest since game RT was found to correlate better (than game target offset) with other clinical assessments in the previous concurrent validity study (Tong et al, 2016). The test-retest reliability correlations obtained with game RT in this study were comparable with the test-retest correlations obtained by Tombaugh (2005) in his study of the test-retest reliability of the MMSE.…”

“…The work finds clinical relevance in the early identification of cognitive decline, crucial for optimal pharmacological treatment and timely provision of psychosocial care [3] [5][6][7][8][9]. The first symptoms of cognitive decline may be present several years before a clinical diagnosis of dementia can be made and thus tools that detect underlying patterns of brain dysfunction are of great importance.…”
