Correlates of susceptibility to scams in older adults without dementia
Open accessAbstract
This study examined correlates of susceptibility to scams in 639 community-dwelling older adults without dementia from a cohort study of aging. Regression models adjusted for age, sex, education, and income were used to examine associations between susceptibility to scams, measured by a five-item self-report measure, and a number of potential correlates. Susceptibility was positively associated with age and negatively associated with income, cognition, psychological well-being, social support, and literacy. Fully adjusted models indicated that older age and lower levels of cognitive function, decreased psychological well-being, and lower literacy in particular may be markers of susceptibility to financial victimization in old age.

According to research, most scam victims do not have dementia, although cognitive decline may apply.
“According to research, most scam victims do not have dementia (James et al. 2014), although cognitive decline may apply (DeLiema et al. 2020; Shao et al. 2019).”
From “If We Don’t Listen to Them, We Make Them Lose More than Money:” Exploring Reasons for Underreporting and the Needs of Older Scam Victims (2023) · cites this paper as James et al. 2014
The Methods (Participants; page unavailable) say the study excluded people with dementia, and the Discussion reports scam susceptibility among the remaining older adults. But the paper studies susceptibility, not the dementia status of actual scam victims, so it cannot establish that most victims do not have dementia. The cognitive-decline clause is attributed to other sources in the citing sentence. (LLM, conf=0.85)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
