Abstract
Plain Language SummaryAs populations age globally, the number of older adults is increasing. In Taiwan, 18.01% of people aged 65 and over have mild cognitive impairment, and 7.64% have dementia. This means that about one in four (25.65%) older adults in Taiwan experience some level of cognitive impairment. This highlights the importance of tools that can help assess or screen for cognitive function. This study suggests that the CogMate™ test, along with brain age and brain age difference assessments, show promise as reliable and effective screening tools similar to the Mini-Mental State Examination. These tools could be useful for early assessment in communities to detect cognitive decline in older adults.
