Results of receiver operating characteristics analyses for SIMBAC total accuracy score

Parameter NI versus MCI NI versus DM NI + MCI versus DM NI versus MCI/DM MCI versus DM
Optimal cutoff 8.5 6.5 6.5 7.5 5.5
AUC 0.77 0.97 0.91 0.84 0.82
Accuracy 67% 94% 84% 76% 75%
Sensitivity 79% 86% 86% 70% 71
Specificity 58% 75% 84% 82% 77
MMSE accuracy (cut point <24) 65% 83% 50% 63% 69% (cut point <20)
Composite score (cut point < −0.33) 71% 91% 83% 72% 62% (cut point < −0.65)

Abbreviations: NI, no impairment; MCI, mild cognitive impairment; DM, dementia; AUC, area under the curve; MMSE, ini–Mental State Examination; SIMBAC, SIMulation-Based Assessment of Cognition.

NOTE. Composite score = average of five standardized score from RAVLT-Delayed Recall, Boston Naming Test (BNT), Digit Span Test (total of backward and forward; DST), Digit Symbol Coding (DSC), and Trail Making Test–Part B (TMT-B).
