Examining subjective cognitive decline in a Canadian multi‐ethnic cohort of older adults
In a sample of cognitively unimpaired older adults, self- and study partner-reported SCD were associated, and the strength of the association did not differ across ethnic groups. However, among South Asian and Chinese participants, SCD burden was greater and more strongly associated with depression and anxiety symptoms. These findings underscore the importance of considering ethnoracial differences and neuropsychiatric symptoms when assessing SCD in diverse populations.
