BASIC is a new case-finding instrument for cognitive impairment and dementia that has been validated in memory clinics in Denmark and other European countries, and in general practice. The diagnostic accuracy of BASIC for dementia and mild cognitive impairment is like or better than the accuracy of existing, more time-consuming cognitive tests. BASIC is significantly correlated with the degree of cognitive impairment. Education does not affect BASIC, and the effects of age and gender are too small to justify score adjustment. BASIC has similar accuracy when assessing immigrants and native Europeans.
