Neuropsychological Predictors of Transition From Healthy Cognitive Aging to Mild Cognitive Impairment: The PATH Through Life Study

Although most measures were significant predictors of conversion to MCI or any-MCD when assessed independently, four tests (IR/DR, STW, SDMT, and simple reaction time variability) accounted for the explained variance in diagnosis when all tests were assessed together. When predictive value, stability across clinical categories, and psychometric characteristics were considered together, the reaction time variability measure was the best predictor of future cognitive disorder.
