Background: The telephone assessment of cognitive functions may reduce the cost and burden of epidemiological studies.

Results: The extensive in-person assessment classified 83 persons with normal cognition, 42 persons with MCI, and 42 persons with dementia. There was considerable overlap in TICS-m scores among the three groups. Receiver operating characteristic curves identified
