      <i>Background/Objective</i>: In recent years, several slightly younger cohorts have been established in order to study the preclinical and prodromal phases of dementia. The Consortium to Establish a Registry for Alzheimer’s Disease (CERAD) wordlist memory test (WLT) is widely used in dementia research. However, culturally adapted and demographically adjusted test norms for younger ages are ...

      <i>Objective</i> - The trail making test (TMT) is one of the most widely used neuropsychological tests. TMT-A provides measures of visual scanning/visuomotor speed and TMT-B involves additional demands on executive functions. Derived scores TMT B-A and TMT B/A enhance measures of executive functioning. However, simple B-A subtraction may lead to false estimates of executive dysfunction in clinical ...

      Dementia disease research encompasses diverse data modalities, including advanced imaging, deep phenotyping, and multi-omics analysis. However, integrating these disparate data sources has historically posed a significant challenge, obstructing the unification and comprehensive analysis of collected information. In recent years, knowledge graphs have emerged as a powerful tool to address such ...
    • Regression-based normative data for the D-KEFS Color-Word Interference Test in Norwegian adults ages 20–85

      <p><i>Objective:</i> The Delis-Kaplan Executive Function System (D-KEFS) Color-Word-Interference Test (CWIT; AKA Stroop test) is a widely used measure of processing speed and executive function. While test materials and instructions have been translated to Norwegian, only American age-adjusted norms from D-KEFS are available in Norway. We here develop norms in a sample of 1011 Norwegians between 20 ...
    • Regression-based norms for the FAS phonemic fluency test for ages 40–84 based on a Norwegian sample 

      Lorentzen, Ingrid Myrvoll; Espenes, Johan Jacob; Hessen, Erik; Waterloo, Knut; Bråthen, Geir; Timón, Santiago; Aarsland, Dag; Fladby, Tormod; Kirsebom, Bjørn-Eivind (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-05-08)
      <p>The FAS phonemic fluency test is a commonly used neuropsychological test of executive function and processing speed. Although Norwegian discrete norms have been developed for the FAS test, American regression-based norms are frequently used by clinicians in Norway. <p>However, language and cultural differences impact performance on the FAS test, and using foreign norms may not be appropriate. ...
    • Regression-based norms for the FAS phonemic fluency test for ages 40–84 based on a Norwegian sample
