The Set Test as an Aid to the Detection of Dementia in Old People
Abstract
Screening examinations are widely advocated for the early detection of disease in the elderly (Williamson et al., 1964; Lowther, McLeod and Williamson, 1970; Williams et al., 1972; Richardson, 1964; Anderson and Cowan, 1955; Isaacs, Livingstone and Neville, 1972). There have been several successful experiments in the use of health visitors and district nurses in the initial interview (Burns, 1969; Hodes, 1971; McNabola, 1970; Williamson et al., 1966).

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.
