Feasibility and reliability of telephone‐based cognitive assessment in middle‐aged and older adults in the Wisconsin Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center

Use of telephone‐based cognitive assessments became more widespread during the COVID‐19 pandemic. The National Alzheimer’s Coordinating Center (NACC) developed the telephone‐based cognitive battery (T‐Cog) to ensure continued data collection and participant retention. The objective of this study was to (1) assess the feasibility and reliability of T‐Cog data collected during the pandemic, (2) evaluate these data in the context of prior in‐person data and (3) inform future use of remote data collection.
