Current State of Self-Administered Brief Computerized Cognitive Assessments for Detection of Cognitive Disorders in Older Adults: A Systematic Review

Abstract: Early diagnosis of cognitive disorders in older adults is a major healthcare priority with benefits to patients, families, and health systems. Rapid advances in digital technology offer potential for developing innovative diagnostic pathways to support early diagnosis. Brief self-administered computerized cognitive tools in particular hold promise for clinical implementation by minimizing demands on staff time. In this study, we conducted a systematic review of self-administered computerized cognitive assessme… Show more

“…Several computerized batteries are sensitive enough to detect a cognitive change in clinical trials for other neurodegenerative diseases, and the Cognitive Drug Research Computerized Assessment System has been used in multiple DLB trials [ 44 , 55 , 57 , 104 110 ]. Whilst such computerized cognitive assessments appear promising, there is a clear need for their further development and validation in DLB [ 104 , 111 , 112 ].…”

“…Internet-based surveys have received widespread attention as methods of large-scale data collection in many fields of health research. Although internet surveys have traditionally focused on the collection of self-reported data (eg, participants’ subjective attitudes, health behaviors, and self-reported medical conditions), interest in the ability to conduct objective testing of cognitive abilities over the internet has substantially increased in recent years [ 1 - 4 ]. Cognitive capacities are relevant to people’s ability to understand and act on information and serve as a basis for higher-order functioning and well-being.…”

“…The lack of standardization is particularly fraught for tests that are timed. Cognitive functioning scores may potentially differ markedly depending on participants’ computer skills and the used device [ 13 , 14 ], such as whether the test is taken on a laptop computer with a physical keyboard versus a tablet or smartphone without a keyboard [ 1 , 15 ]. Moreover, although self-administered web-based testing increases flexibility and convenience of test administration in participants’ daily lives, this comes with the potential costs of excessive measurement errors and biases associated with environmental influences (eg, the location where the test is taken and interruption by people or devices).…”

“…The importance of digital technology to decision-making in the field of the neuropsychology of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is growing rapidly (1)(2)(3). As both pre-symptomatic and symptomatic AD are characterized most strongly by difficulty with learning and memory, digital tools have been applied to many aspects of the assessment of these functions.…”
