Dementia
Scoring Key
Scores in the impaired range (2 or greater) indicate a need for further assessment.
Scores in the normal range (0-1) suggest that a dementing disorder is unlikely, but a very early disease process cannot be ruled out.
The questionnaire used here is the AD8 Screening Interview, and is developed to detect dementia.
