Cognistat is the leading cognitive test for assessing the five major cognitive ability areas: language, spatial skills, memory, calculations and reasoning. Cognistat was developed at Stanford University and is standardized for adolescents, adults and seniors (60 – 84). It can be administered by any suitably trained healthcare professional. The Cognistat assessment and screening test has been culturally adapted with clinical validity in many languages by collaborating with important universities, academic institutions and customers worldwide. With over 400 peer-reviewed scientific articles, Cognistat’s use in patients with stroke, dementia, traumatic brain injury, major psychiatric disorders and substance abuse is well documented. The Cognistat Assessment System preserves the strengths of the highly regarded paper and pencil version of Cognistat: Assesses five major areas of cognitive functioning, gives a quick yet comprehensive evaluation, utilizes a screen and metric approach.

CAMCI-Research is a customizable battery of computerized tasks designed to assess cognitive performance. This computer-administered, self-paced tool allows researchers to arrange protocols of tasks to collect accuracy and reaction time data for comparison to normative data. The complete CAMCI-Research battery includes nine behavioral tasks, such as tests of attention, memory (verbal, non-verbal, functional, and incidental), executive function, and processing speed. Additionally, a series of self-report questions may be presented to gather information from participants regarding factors that could affect their performance on the tasks, such as perceived memory loss, alcohol use, depression, and anxiety. An innovative virtual environment task tests domains like incidental memory, not easily assessed using paper-pencil tests. Computer-administered tasks ensure standardized administration and scoring, avoiding inter-site and inter-examiner variability.
