Developing a Danish version of the LASSI-L test – reliability and predictive value in patients with mild cognitive impairment, mild dementia due to AD and subjective cognitive decline

SUMMARY
The Loewenstein-Acevedo Scales for Semantic Interference and Learning (LASSI-L), has shown promising diagnostic properties for the diagnosis of Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and dementia. LASSI-L may also be efficient in predicting cognitive decline in at-risk individuals. There is an unmet need to examine the diagnostic properties of the LASSI-L in a Danish context where traditional neuropsychological tests are typically applied when diagnosing possible dementia disorders. LASSI-L had high reliability and promising predictive value in the diagnosis of aMCI and mild AD due to AD.
