简介我们开发了一种在线认知测试（大脑评估[BA]），它与现有的神经心理学测试表现出中等的相关性。我们制作了仅需要10分钟的简短版本的BA，并调查了与原始版本的相关性。 参与者和方法通过互联网招募了323名受试者（26-82岁，平均年龄41.9岁）并在线执行了原始版本的BA，对于原始版本和简短版本的分析，分别利用了整体和前2分钟的结果。对两个版本之间的相关性进行了评估，144 名受试者同意接受有关 BA 使用情况的采访。 结果 BA 的简短版本和原始版本之间的相关性较强（数字记忆，r= 0.72：总计，r= 0.73）或中等（单词记忆，r= 0.66；视觉空间，r= 0.42；工作记忆，r= 0.53；判断力，r= 0.54）。我们发现“单词记忆”子测试与年龄之间存在很强的负相关性（简短版本，r=− 0.85；原始版本，r=− 0.88）。关于面试，每年最想通过简短的版本进行评估。在分数令人担忧的情况下，他们会希望通过原始版本的 BA 和/或更具体的神经心理学测试进行检查。讨论我们发现简短版本的 BA 和原始版本表现出很强的相关性，并且两个版本之间年龄和子测试分数之间的相关系数几乎相同。结论简短版本的 BA 将有助于在临床中进行认知评估。
IntroductionWe have developed an online cognitive test (Brain Assessment [BA]) which exhibits moderate correlations with established neuropsychological tests. We made a short version of the BA that requires only 10 min and investigated correlations with the original version.Participants and MethodsThree hundred and twenty-three subjects (26–82 years old, mean age 41.9 years) were recruited via the internet and performed the original version of the BA online, and, for the analyses of the original and short version, the results of the whole and of the first 2 min were utilized, respectively. Correlations were evaluated between both versions, and 144 subjects agreed to be interviewed about BA utilization.ResultsCorrelations between the short and original versions of the BA were strong (memory of numbers, r= 0.72: total, r= 0.73) or moderate (memory of words, r= 0.66; visuospatial, r= 0.42; working memory, r= 0.53; judgment, r= 0.54). We found a strong negative correlation between the “memory of words” subtest and age (short version, r=− 0.85; original version, r=− 0.88). Regarding the interview, most wanted to be assessed by the short version every year. In the case of a concerning score, they would then want to be examined by the original version of the BA and/or more specific neuropsychological tests.DiscussionWe found that the short and the original versions of the BA exhibited strong correlations, and the correlation coefficients between age and subtest scores were almost the same between the two versions.ConclusionThe short version of the BA will be useful to perform cognitive assessments in the clinic.
