ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
Episodic memory loss, a hallmark symptom of Alzheimer's Disease, is frequently quantified by story memory performance. The National Alzheimer's Coordinating Center Uniform Data Set Neuropsychological Battery (UDSNB) replaced Logical Memory with Craft Story 21 in UDSNB Version 3. The concordance between these story memory tasks is poorly characterized in demographically diverse older adults, possibly jeopardizing the integrity of longitudinal data in aging cohorts.METHOD:
Einstein Aging Study participants (n = 298; Mage = 76.6; Meducation = 15; 66.4% women; 43.3% Non-Hispanic White) completed UDSNB measures, including Craft Story and Logical Memory. Classification as normal cognition (n = 206) or mild cognitive impairment (n = 90) was based on Jak/Bondi criteria. Analyses included correlations, linear regression, and equipercentile equating methods to characterize the relationship between Logical Memory and Craft Story. Multivariate linear mixed effects models explored the association of covariates and practice effects over follow-up, stratified by cognitive status and race/ethnicity.RESULTS:
Immediate (r = 0.54) and delayed (r = 0.56) versions of Logical Memory and Craft Story were moderately correlated. Age, education, depression, and female sex were associated with Logical Memory, while age, education, cognitive status, and male sex were associated with Craft Story. Significant differential effects of sex on story memory were observed.CONCLUSIONS:
We demonstrated that Logical Memory and Craft Story may be used largely interchangeably; however, memory may be enhanced for stories with a protagonist of the same sex as the participant. Craft Story was somewhat more associated with mild cognitive impairment in the overall sample, but especially in non-Hispanic Black participants. We discuss how results inform test selection considerations.Palavras-chave
