Effect of Amnesia Mild Cognitive Impairment and Alzheimer’s Diseaseon Recognition Memory of Elderly Peoplein Shiraz Verbal Learning Test: Differences in Recognition Discriminability and Response Bias
Authors
Abstract:
Background: Most studies have investigated the effect of brain pathological aging on information recall and recognition memory performance of patients (by using a yes/no procedure), and for this reason, provide a partial picture of memory deficits and other factors involved in recognition memory such as discriminability and response bias are not considered. In this regard, the aim of present study was to explore the effect of Mild Cognitive Impairment and Alzheimer disease on the subtests of recognition memory (recognition discriminability index and response bias) in the SVLT. Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted on 190 eligible elderly people aged 60-89 years in 1400. The data collection tools were SVLT and MMSE. We used SPSS.19 software to perform descriptive (frequency, mean and standard deviations) and analytical data (ANOVA and Scheffe test), and the significance level was set at P<0.05. Results: The results showed that the patients with aMCI and Alzheimer’s disease scored significantly worse than the normal elderly people on recognition memory performance (Scheffe, p<0.001). Also, the obtained results indicated that elderly with aMCI and Alzheimer’s disease compared to normal elderly people had lower scores and more false positive in recognition discriminability index (global, semantic, source, and new) (Scheffe, p<0.001). When it came to response bias, AD patients received significantly higher scores than older people with aMCI and normal elderly (Scheffe, p<0.001). Conclusion: The present research findings suggested that exploring the nature of recognition memory performance (recognition discriminability) in aMCI is useful information to predict progression to AD dementia from the prodromal stage.

Recognition memory deficits in mild cognitive impairment.
There is no agreement on the pattern of recognition memory deficits characteristic of patients diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Whereas lower performance in recollection is the hallmark of MCI, there is a strong controversy about possible deficits in familiarity estimates when using recognition memory tasks. The aim of this research is to shed light on the pattern of responding i...

abstract lexical knowledge of complex english words is an important part of language skills and crucial for fluent language use (nation, 2001). the present study, thus, was an attempt to assess the role of morphological decomposition awareness as a vocabulary learning strategy on learners’ productive and receptive recall and recognition of complex english words. so 90 sophomores (female and ma...

PURPOSE The discrimination between normal elderly (NC) and those with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is of clinical relevance since the conversion from MCI to Alzheimer dementia (AD) is high. METHODS This study enrolled 216 amnestic MCI patients and 103 NC from our memory clinics and assessed whether the learning curve, recall and cued scores, as well as error patterns from the Chinese Versi...
