Cognitive Domains and Functional Assessment Questionnaire (CDFAQ): Accuracy Across Educational Levels
CDFAQ's total score shows good accuracy in samples of low and high educational levels and excellent accuracy in samples with 4 to 7 years of schooling. Interestingly, the LM domain shows excellent accuracy (AUC > 0.9) in samples with higher levels of education. Brazilian older adults have lower educational levels and more heterogeneity in schooling quality compared to those from high-income nations. Assessment of psychometric properties according to education is needed, as well as more scenarios such as studies in community and clinical settings.
