Bifactor analysis demonstrated that although both measures capture a broad range of cognitive functioning (e.g., working memory, social cognition), the common variance on each is overwhelmingly explained by a single general factor.
It is the relative performance of this cerebral workspace, he said, that intelligence tests appear to measure, and that determines how deft a person is at solving a broad range of cognitive problems.
The participants were 52 students in a school of design, who were administered a designing task and the Meaning Test, assessing a broad range of cognitive processes.
Our findings show that PRGF-Endoret exerts multifunctional and complementary effects that result in the reversal of the broad range of cognitive deficits in AD, suggesting that PRGF-Endoret may hold promise as an innovative therapy in AD.
Likewise, the broad range of cognitive functioning necessitates synthesis of results across multiple measures of cognitive performance.
But the connectionist paradigm was viewed as applicable not only to specialized functions, but to a broad range of cognitive tasks including recognizing objects in an image, recognizing speech, understanding language, making inferences, and guiding physical behavior.
Since overall ANOVA (including both treatment groups) did not result in a significant group × time interaction, these results from the within-group analyses have to be interpreted with caution, but they might indicate that amisulpride had a broader range of cognitive effects.
Thus, we join Zheng et al. in calling for the reform of many introductory biology courses such that a broader range of cognitive skills is assessed.
Since MoCA assesses a broader range of cognitive domains including abstraction and executive function, it may be more sensitive than SMMSE to diagnose MCI in DM subjects.
The MoCA is recognized as superior to the SMMSE for detecting mild stages of cognitive impairment, as it requires a broader range of cognitive processes for perfect scores, and all items are explicitly related to key domains of cognitive impairment.
Future research should include a broader range of cognitive impairment levels, more detailed neuropsychological testing, and more extensive physical assessments, particularly those that may have more or less of a cognitive demand than TUG.
