With a score between 0 and 30 points, the MoCA has the ability to assess multiple cognitive domains 1,2 it has been used in more than 200 countries in different languages, and available for clinical and educational use from Many researchers have validated the MoCA test the vast majority of such studies were with patient populations - those at risk or already diagnosed with cognitive impairments. The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) 1 is a simple and user friendly tool widely used for screening mild cognitive impairment (MCI), a transitional stage between normal aging and dementia. The promising performance of a Vietnamese version of the MoCA test seen in this study has important practical implications for the screening of MCI among an important immigrant population in community settings. The study suggests several potential areas for improvement to enhance discriminating power of certain items and sub-tests, including the memory domain. The test was found to be a reliable, and likely valid, instrument for mild cognitive impairment (MCI) screening within our study population. Our findings indicate good psychometric applicability and internal reliability, as well as construct and criterion validity of this modification of the MoCA test. We also correlated the MoCA score with individual characteristics, including age, sex, and education. Item analyses, and construct and criterion validity analyses were performed. METHODSįorty-eight older adults were interviewed using a Vietnamese version of MoCA. Epub 2014 Nov 11.The goal of this study was to assess how the Vietnamese version of the MoCA test performed in a community-based sample of Vietnamese American (VA) older adults, an immigrant population with whom the MoCA test has not been validated. doi: 10.1089/tmj.2019.0134.Ī feasibility study of conducting the Montreal Cognitive Assessment remotely in individuals with movement disordersĪ Abdolahi, MT Bull, KC Darwin… – Health informatics …, 2016 – Iiboshi K, Yoshida K, Yamaoka Y, Eguchi Y, Sato D, Kishimoto M, Funaki K, Mimura M, Kishimoto T. 2019 Dec 9:1357633X19890788.Ī Validation Study of the Remotely Administered Montreal Cognitive Assessment Tool in the Elderly Japanese Population.
