A 10-minute version of the B-CATS correlates highly with the “gold standard” neurocognitive battery that has an administration time of over 60 min. Both measures correlate moderately with a measure of functional capacity. This brief battery was designed to allow clinicians to monitor cognitive change and better inform treatment decisions.
