Resumen
Verbal episodic memory tests assess memory performance using total learning scores. The analysis of inter-trial indices such as gained (GA) and lost (LA) access can provide additional information on the acquisition and consolidation processes. The main objetive was to determine whether the GA and LA indices, derived from a word-list verbal episodic memory test are useful for predicting cognitive impairment in aging. 60 older people aged was divided into 3 groups: cognitively healthy, stable Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and MCI converting to probable Alzheimer's disease (MCI-conv). The results showed that GA and LA measures are independent from the traditional measures -total score of correct answers-. Logistic regression showed that these values are predictive of the conversion over time and could be a cognitive marker of conversion from MCI to AD. This suggests that the GA index, which shows acquisition processes in word-list tests, may be a marker of cognitive impairment.
