Genuine memory deficits in dementia

Grober, Ellen, Buschke, Herman·1987·Developmental Neuropsychology

Abstract

Controlled learning with effective cued recall is needed to distinguish between genuine memory deficits due to impairment of specific memory processes and apparent memory deficits due to impairment of other cognitive processes, such as attention, that can limit memory. Effective cued recall is needed for accurate measurement of memory in the elderly because cued recall reveals learning not shown by free recall. When a search procedure was used to control processing for effective encoding and cued recall, nondemented elderly adults recalled all or nearly all 16 items on each trial. Decreased recall by demented patients even after they carried out the same effective processing showed genuine memory impairment that was not due to other cognitive deficits. Cued recall was better than either free recall or recognition in discriminating elderly persons with dementia from those without dementia and by itself accounted for 75 % of the variation in dementia status. Cued recall was especially useful for identifying patients with mild to moderate dementia who were not identified by free recall. It is proposed that elderly persons who have decreased cued recall of a 16‐item list after controlled learning have genuine memory impairment and therefore are likely to be demented because other causes of amnestic syndromes are relatively infrequent in the aged. Controlled learning with effective cued recall should be useful for screening of elderly persons for dementia.

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.
