Abstract:
Dementia poses a significant global health problem, necessitating early detection for effective intervention. A literary review was conducted to examine current mobile-based cognitive tests. The limitations of the reviewed applications varied from accessibility to reliability. The paper addresses these limitations by proposing a digital, self-administered version of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) test, with future research focusing on validating the effectiveness of the proposed mobile application in early detection.
