Left-handedness was positively associated with performance on non-dominant hand trials. Finally, the interaction between age and education levels was positively associated with performance on the second non-dominant hand trial. Normative data are presented using regression equations.

Within neuropsychology, VR-based research on cognitive function assessment and treatment is gaining momentum, leading to the development of innovative neuropsychological VR paradigms. Despite advancements, limited research has focused on using VR to assess cognitive functions in older adults. This study aimed to develop an immersive VR-based cognitive-assessment tool to evaluate spatial and sensory-information processing in older adults. The program was implemented using multisensory feedback incorporating visual and auditory stimuli, as well as tactile and gesture-based hand interactions through haptic gloves. Ten individuals (three females and seven males; mean age = 65 years) participated in user-experience evaluations and in-depth interviews to explore the effectiveness and areas for improvement of the proposed program. Survey responses were analyzed using descriptive statistics to assess user experience across four categories. The participants assessed the tool as exceptionally safe (5.00 points), satisfactory (4.33 points), and well-designed (4.73 points). However, they also reported issues such as discomfort during object-hand interactions, inaccurate auditory-feedback recognition, and difficulty performing tactile-attention tasks. The results indicate that the proposed VR-based cognitive-assessment tool holds considerable potential as a useful cognitive assessment tool for older adults. However, it requires further research and development as well as advancements in sensor technology, hand-tracking algorithms, and customizable interfaces.","PeriodicalId":51308,"journal":{"name":"Applied Neuropsychology-Adult","volume":" ","pages":"1-9"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143712059","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

CR was measured with the Cognitive Reserve Index Questionnaire, EF with verbal fluency and the Stroop Test, and WM using digit span tasks. Structural Equation Modeling was used to analyze the relationships among CR, EF, WM, and SC, controlling for age and gender.Results: CR was significantly associated with both RMET and FPRT performances. Mediation analysis revealed the direct effects of CR on RMET performance, while the effects on FPRT performance were mediated by executive functions. WM had a partial mediating effect on EF and ToM, but did not directly influence FPRT. Education was most strongly associated with RMET performance, while leisure activities were linked to FPRT performance.Conclusion: These findings suggest that CR indirectly supports ToM by enhancing EF and highlight the importance of interventions aimed at strengthening executive control to support social cognition in aging.","PeriodicalId":51308,"journal":{"name":"Applied Neuropsychology-Adult","volume":" ","pages":"1-11"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143694365","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the cognitive impairment characteristics of the two diseases are different, and the results of cognitive assessment can help the diagnosis of the disease.Objective: To explore the different characteristics of Mini-mental State Examination (MMSE) and Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale (MoCA) in DLB and AD patients, and to explore potential markers to distinguish AD and DLB.Methods: This study included 66 patients with DLB, 81 with AD, and 58 cognitively normal subjects. All of them completed MMSE, MoCA, and Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR).Results: Compared with NC, both DLB and AD participants demonstrated statistically lower scores in the total and subitem domains of MMSE and MoCA (p < 0.05). When CDR was less than 2, DLB patients had better performance than AD in two subtests including memory and orientation (p < 0.05), demonstrated worse performance in most subtest including executive function, writing, visuospatial abilities, and attention (p < 0.05). Nonetheless, no notable distinction in scores existed for the DLB and AD groups with a CDR score of 2 (p > 0.05).Conclusion: We observed distinct cognitive performances in subjects from both the DLB and AD groups across different stages of dementia. Our study confirms the high value of MMSE and MoCA in distinguishing patients with DLB and AD in the early stages of the disease, and they can improve the differential diagnosis of DLB and AD.","PeriodicalId":51308,"journal":{"name":"Applied Neuropsychology-Adult","volume":" ","pages":"1-10"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143674988","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Different theoretical orientations suggest that difficulties with emotional needs, interpersonal motivations, psychosocial stages, and maturational tasks lie at the core of psychopathology. From an evolutionary and neurobiological perspective, several affective systems were shaped through the interaction between genetic and environmental pressures and can be described as the neural basis for several emotion-based behavioral tendencies. However, efforts to integrate these constructs from basic neural science, evolutionary psychology, and clinical psychology have been sparse. In this sense, the present article aims to briefly review the literature on such clinically relevant constructs and make a proposal in a coherent metatheoretical perspective to integrate and make sense of these phenomena as an unified rationale. From affective neuroscience to evolutionary psychology, developmental psychopathology, and ecological systems perspectives, biopsychosocial and contextual pressures are suggested as a heuristic for a contemporary, coherent, and transtheoretical theory of the disorder.","PeriodicalId":51308,"journal":{"name":"Applied Neuropsychology-Adult","volume":" ","pages":"1-14"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143651912","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Participants were classified into valid or invalid performance groups using a criterion-grouping approach based on multiple independent performance validity tests. We derived a supplemental validity indicator, entitled the \"Encoding\" score, based on the number of correct responses from 43 items on the initial WCT trial, which were identified via critical item analysis. Using cutoffs of ≤40 for the Encoding score and ≤42 for the Summary score together enhanced classification accuracy, yielding an area under the curve of .83. Compared to using the WCT Summary score alone, the combined use of the Encoding and Summary scores increased the sensitivity by .10 to yield a total sensitivity of .58, while maintaining high (.92) specificity. Findings suggest the WCT Encoding score may provide a useful index of performance validity alongside the Summary score.

One hundred eighteen Dutch adults participated. A recall task consisting of three presentations was administered. Fifteen and forty-five minutes after the recall task, participants completed a recognition task. The investigated dependent variables included the yes/no reproduction and recognition of a word, as well as occurrence of a false positive of a new, content-matched word. The validity of the MMRRT was assessed by evaluation of the known effects of age, gender, educational level, word length, presentation number, retesting (6 months later) and the primacy and recency phenomenon on reproduction. Using multilevel regression analyses for dichotomous outcomes, all these predictors were statistically significant and independent of each other. These results provide evidence in favor of the validity of the MMRRT. When evaluating cognition, the MMRRT seems to have similar psychometric properties compared to other memory tasks. Contrary to our expectations, emotionally loaded words appear to have a lower likelihood of being remembered and reproduced. Future research is necessary to shed more light on this unexpected finding.","PeriodicalId":51308,"journal":{"name":"Applied Neuropsychology-Adult","volume":" ","pages":"1-9"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143558752","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
