Longitudinal differences in language in middle‐aged and older people with normal cognition, subjective cognitive impairment, and mild cognitive impairment. Results of the Compostela Aging Study

According to these preliminary analyses of the longitudinal results of our study, the Boston naming test could be a linguistic marker of cognitive changes in late adulthood.
