The Subjective Cognitive Decline Questionnaire (SCD-Q): A Validation Study

Abstract

Self-perceived cognitive decline, measured by the SCD-Q part I (MyCog), discriminated SCD from CTR. Part II (TheirCog) was strongly related to subjects' objective cognitive performance, and discriminated between subjects with or without cognitive impairment. The SCD-Q is a useful tool to measure self-perceived cognitive decline incorporating the decliner and the informant perspective.
