Addenbrooke's Cognitive Examination" As a Screening Test for Mild Cognitive Impairment in Hearing Impaired Individuals
Development and Validation of the “Addenbrooke’s Cognitive Examination” as a Screening Test for Mild Cognitive Impairment in Hearing Impaired Individuals Courtney North D.Clin.Psy. thesis (Volume 1), 2020 University College London 1 UCL Doctorate in Clinical Psychology Thesis declaration form I confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Signature: Name: Courtney North Date: 19th June 2020 2 Overview This thesis examined the utility of different neuropsychological tests in the detection of cognitive impairment in older adult populations. Limitations, directions for research and clinical implications have been highlighted. Part One: Meta-Analysis - The literature review sought to identify, for the first time, the cognitive tests that best discriminate between Posterior Cortical Atrophy (PCA) and typical Alzheimer’s Disease (tAD), as well as PCA and healthy controls (HC). The most discriminating cognitive tests for PCA and tAD presentations were found to be measures of perception and verbal memory. Part Two: Empirical Paper - The objectives were to develop a hearing-impaired version of the Addenbrooke’s Cognitive Examination (HI-ACE-III) and assess whether it can be used as a screening tool for mild cognitive impairment (MCI), as well as accurately distinguish cognitively impaired people from healthy controls. It was found to be a sensitive and specific screening tool, with a good ability to diagnose individuals with and without MCI in hearing-impaired populations. This was a joint project with Nattawan Utoomprurkporn, PhD student and qualified audiologist, and Mary Heatley, Trainee Clinical Psychologist Part Three: Critical Appraisal - The critical appraisal, considers the challenges of the project, including the barriers to recruitment, the navigation of the scientist- practitioner role and the impact of conducting research during a pandemic. -

The PASAT and Traumatic Brain Injury
USING DISABILITY RATING SCALE RECOVERY CURVES TO PREDICT PASAT PERFORMANCE AFTER CLOSED HEAD INJURY ______________ A Thesis Presented to The Faculty of the Department of Psychology University of Houston ______________ In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts ______________ By Marika P. Faytell December, 2014 i USING DISABILITY RATING SCALE RECOVERY CURVES TO PREDICT PASAT PERFORMANCE AFTER CLOSED HEAD INJURY _______________ An Abstract of a Thesis Presented to The Faculty of the Department of Psychology University of Houston _______________ In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts _______________ By Marika P. Faytell December, 2014 iii ABSTRACT Objective: Existing predictive models of cognitive outcome following closed head injury have been largely based on a single time-point. Using archival data, the current study sought to improve upon existing models by predicting cognitive outcome at six months post-injury from a model of the rate of recovery of global functioning over four time-points: hospital discharge, one, three and six months post-injury. Participants and Method: Data from 91 individuals with complicated mild, moderate, and severe closed head injury who had participated in CPHS approved, NIH funded research that involved the collection of global outcome data and neuropsychological testing at six months post injury were used. Disability Rating Scale (DRS) scores from discharge, one, three and six months post-injury were selected along with Paced Auditory Serial Addition Test (PASAT) scores at six months post injury. The PASAT is a task that involves multiple cognitive domains, including processing speed, sustained and divided attention, and working and immediate memory. -

Bremen, den 20 Juni 2017 Institut für Psychologie & Kognitionsforschung Gutachter Prof. Dr. Canan Başar-Eroğlu Institute for Psychology & Cognition Research. Human and Health Sciences, University of Bremen, Bremen, Germany. Prof. Dr. Tamer Demiralp (MD) Department of Physiology. Istanbul Faculty of Medicine, Istanbul University, Istanbul, Turkey. 1 This study was realized in collaboration of the institutions listed below. This study was supported by the Yearly Doctorate Stipend of the DAAD (German Academic Exchange Service) over the whole time-period of two years that this study lasted. 2 DEDICATION This work is dedicated to all those sixty lovely patients participating in this study and the future patients that will hopefully benefit from our findings. I would like to express my gratitude to the DAAD (German Academic Exchange Service) for the awarded Yearly Doctorate Stipend helping me to realize my research project. 3 SUMMARY Cognitive symptoms are common in Parkinson disease (PD) and range from mild cognitive impairment (PD-MCI) to dementia (PDD). It is not fully understood, whether PD-MCI and PDD are consecutive events and evolve into each other or whether they display two different entities. The high conversion rate from PD-MCI to PDD points to a progressive pattern, while different cognitive profiles seems to be related with higher conversion risk to PDD. -
