Description

Claudio Cubillos and co-authors review, in 2023, digital tests that measure thinking skills in older adults. Spotting decline early matters, and software could make testing cheaper and wider. The team searched three databases and, after screening, kept twenty studies of apps and platforms for this purpose.

Most tools were computerized versions of paper tests, or test batteries run on computers, tablets, or the web. A few used simulators, virtual settings, or games built around daily tasks. The review maps which thinking skills were tested and how the tools were validated, and it flags gaps, such as thin evidence on some accuracy measures, for future developers.
