The Role of Risk Perception and Psychosocial Factors in Attitudes and Views on Preclinical Dementia Risk Estimation – The PreTAD‐Study
Risk perception is highly individual and may influence the process of AD dementia risk estimation. While psychosocial factors appear to have a limited impact on the decision to pursue dementia risk estimation in a hypothetical scenario, their impact in the subsequent process remains unclear. PreTAD findings highlight the need for personalized counseling that considers emotional and cognitive profiles to support informed decision-making in preclinical predictive AD diagnostics.
