Bridging the Gap between Cognition and Everyday Functioning: A linking Study in Amyloid Positive Participants
Although direct linking between cognition and daily functioning was not possible, our findings support more functional dependencies with increasing cognitive problems. Functional difficulties in the highest MMSE group suggest limited sensitivity of cognitive screening. Our findings suggest a nuanced link between global cognition and everyday functioning, supporting complementary use of both instruments.
