| Description: |
Cognitive impairment no dementia (CIND) status – a multi-test profile and impairment classification – is a promising indicator of cognitive health, leveraging intraindividual variability in performance across multiple domains. CIND profiles have exhibited considerable utility for differentiating adults exhibiting neuropsychological impairment (>-1SD below age- and education-adjusted norms) on one (CIND-single) or more (CIND-multiple) tasks, from those who are comparatively unimpaired or exhibit transient low scores due to temporary factors (e.g., minor illness). Research employing CIND profiles has focused on older populations, leaving questions about the prevalence, distribution, and correlates of CIND status among midlife adults, who are at risk for dementia. Using data from the MIDUS II study (N = 4,241; Mage=55.6, SD = 12.2, Range=28-84; 55%=women), participants completed the Brief Test of Adult Cognition via Telephone (BTACT), which includes tests of executive function and episodic memory abilities. CIND status prevalences were 50.2% non-CIND, 26.8% CIND-single, and 23.0% CIND-multiple. Significantly more men (p=.03), non-White (p |
