概要 Speech sample of Cognitive Status Examination (COGNISTAT) is a task in which examinees freely talk about what is happening in a presented picture. We investigated whether there are differences in the characteristics between patients who described or did not describe the relationship between two people in the speech sample based on age, gender, cognitive dysfunction, and type of dementia (Alzheimer's disease and dementia with Lewy bodies). The participants were 60-year-old or older patients diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease or dementia with Lewy bodies who undertook the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and COGNISTAT at a general hospital specialized in care for the elderly. MMSE and COGNISTAT were performed by a female clinical psychologist in all patients. In a stepwise logistic regression analysis using the two groups (description and no description groups) as a response variable, and the age, gender, diagnosis, MMSE score, and score of each COGNISTAT subtest as explanatory variables, the MMSE score (OR = 1.09; 95% CI [1.03, 1.15]) and gender (OR = 1.79; 95% CI [1.09, 2.93]) factors were extracted. These results indicated that patients with severer overall cognitive dysfunction and male patients were unlikely to describe the relationship between two people in a speech sample.
