The Short Test of Mental Status (STMS) was developed by Kokmen and colleagues as a brief cognitive screening test. Existing research has found the STMS to be sensitive in detecting cognitive impairment in patients with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI). The STMS has also been shown to be comparable to other cognitive screening instruments, including the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). However, the relationship between the STMS and traditional neuropsychological tests has yet to be evaluated. This study sought to explore the concordance between the STMS test items and neuropsychological test variables in a mixed clinical sample. Neuropsychological test data was collected from an archival database for 150 adults (Mean age = 71.4years) referred to an interdisciplinary dementia care clinic at an academic medical center. Descriptive statistics for the demographic and test variables were produced. Pearson correlations were used to examine the relationships between the STMS total score, STMS item scores, and the neuropsychological test variables. Statistically significant correlations were found between the STMS item scores and their corresponding neuropsychological tests: Orientation (r = 0.46-0.56), Attention (r = 0.39-0.51), Registration-Trials (r = 0.32-0.50), Calculations (r = 0.30-0.41), Construction (r = 0.43), Information (r = 0.56), and Recall (r = 0.61-0.71). The STMS total score was significantly correlated with all neuropsychological test scores (r = 0.30-72). The STMS shows strong concordance with traditional neuropsychological tests in a dementia clinic sample. Future analyses will include examining construct validity of the STMS with different clinical groups and diagnoses as well as an exploration of the underlying factor structure of the STMS.
