Cognitive profiles in dementia

Abstract: Objective: To re-examine proposed models of cognitive test performance that concluded separate factor structures were required for people with Alzheimer disease (AD) and older adults without dementia.Methods: Five models of cognitive test performance were compared using multistep confirmatory factor analysis in 115 individuals with autopsy-confirmed AD and 191 research participants without clinical dementia from longitudinal studies at the Washington University AD Research Center. The models were then cross-va… Show more

“…This report extends previous work [8,9] characterizing cognitive ability in normal aging and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) to evaluate the cognitive course in PD with (PDD) and without dementia (PDND). First, we determined whether a factor analytic model of general and domain-specific cognitive abilities empirically derived in people with and without AD applied to PDD and PDND.…”

“…There were no sex or race restrictions. Data from the autopsy-confirmed AD (n = 115) and healthy aging (n = 191) groups have been previously reported [8] and are included here as reference groups for a comparison with the PD groups. Individuals with disorders that can result in other types of dementia or parkinsonism [e.g.…”

“…Similar analyses were conducted for a global composite psychometric score, 22 which was available for a subset of participants who had the same psychometric test battery. The linear mixed models were adjusted for the same demographic variables selected by the stepwise procedure in the expanded Cox proportional hazards model containing the biomarker of interest.…”

“…Based on confirmatory factor analyses of these measures that were cross-validated across samples with and without dementia 24 and subsequent work including more measures, we also report 5 composite scores for each person at time of assessment. The episodic memory composite included Logical Memory, Associate Learning, and free recall from the SRT.…”
