Verbal fluency tests assess global cognitive status but have limited diagnostic differentiation: Evidence from a large-scale examination of six neurodegenerative diseases

2022-08-17

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Objective</h4> Verbal fluency is clinically widely used but its utility in differentiating between neurodegenerative dementias and progressive aphasias, and from healthy controls, remains unclear. We assessed whether the total number of words produced, their psycholinguistic properties, and production order effects could differentiate between Alzheimer’s disease (AD), behavioural variant of frontotemporal deme...
