The classification of mild cognitive impairment or healthy ageing improves when including practice effects derived from a semantic verbal fluency task
In MCI, practice effects in verbal fluency tasks were smaller than in healthy adults.Smaller practice effects in MCI indicated compromised learning.Including practice effects improved the classification of MCI vs. healthy ageing.In MCI, practice effects were independent of episodic memory performance.
