Bruno, D., R. Koscik, J. Woodard, N. Pomara, and S. Johnson. “The Recency Ratio As Predictor of Early MCI.”. International Psychogeriatrics, Vol. 30, no. 12, 2018, pp. 1883-8.
ABSTRACTObjectives:Individuals with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) present poor immediate primacy recall accompanied by intact or exaggerated recency, which then tends to decline after a delay. Bruno et al. (Journal of Clinical and Experimental Neuropsychology, Vol. 38, 2016, pp. 967-973) have shown that higher ratio scores between immediate and delayed recency (i.e. the recency ratio; Rr) are associated with cognitive decline in high-functioning older individuals. We tested whether Rr predicted conversion to early mild cognitive impairment (early MCI) from a cognitively healthy baseline.
