Sex differences in rates of cognitive decline based on conventional and ecological momentary assessments and accounting for practice effects
We observed significantly faster decline in processing speed among women compared with men for EMA-based but not a conventional, paper-and-pencil test. After accounting for practice effects, smartphone-based digital EMA may be more sensitive to cognitive change and offer novel opportunities to identify possible sex differences at early disease stages.
