NCT03199378

Brief Summary

The goal of this proposal is to collect normative data from a sample of ethnically diverse Florida elders on a brief, standardized neuropsychological test battery . The norms collected in this multi-cultural dataset will provide appropriate corrections for demographic and sociocultural variables that contribute to performance variance on neuropsychological tests. By accounting for these variables, the normative corrections will improve specificity and eliminate disparities in diagnostic validity and clinical utility of neuropsychological tests when administered to Florida's ethnic minority elders.

  • Abnormal findings on current neurologic examination.
  • History of chronic neurological diseases (stroke, active seizure disorder, parkisonism, TBI with subsequent cognitive change.
  • Current substance abuse or history of substance dependence.
  • History of chronic psychiatric disease (Bipolar disorder, schizophrenia).
  • Currently active mood disorder. History of depression or anxiety is acceptable if symptoms are controlled (Score \<6 on the Geriatric Depression Scale). If taking psychoactive mood medication dosage must be stable for at least one month prior to testing.
