Are you familiar with the Kimberley Indigenous Cognitive Assessment? See http://www.wacha.org.au/kica.html.

Nikola Ilankovic

First you must make a precise functional diagnostic of visual and auditive systems!

Alfredo Ardila and Ferggy Ostrosky-Sólis had many studies in this field. Sonia Brucki studied amazonian brazilian older adults.

First we need to study the healthy cognitive performance and after we need to study the cognitive decline.

Best regards,

Henrique.

Thanks everyone for your responses so far. I definitely agree with Nikola Illankovik about proper assessment of visual and auditory systems. Far too often, these systems are neglected cognitive assessment of older adults leading to misdiagnoses. Romola Bucks and Henrique Salmazo Silva, many thanks for the links to the articles. I will also post a few resources I have uncovered on this message when I get a chance. I am grateful to hear from my international colleagues on this issue.
