Values are presented as mean ± SD for normally distributed continuous variables, median (interquartile range) for non-normally distributed continuous variables. (1) attention (DSF, digit span forward and DSB, digit span backward), (2) visuospatial function (RCFT, Rey Complex Figure Test copying), (3) language (S-K-BNT, Short form of the Korean-Boston Naming Test: 15 items), (4) memory (SVLT-IR, Seoul Verbal Learning Test: 3 trials of a 12-word list learning, SVLT-DR, 20-min delayed free recall, and recognition [SVLT-R]), and (5) executive function and working memory (verbal fluency test; VF-S, semantic and VF-P, phonemic fluency tests; K-SCWT, Korean version of Stroop Color-Word Test; DSCT, Digit Symbol Coding Test, TMT-A, Trail Making Test part A; TMT-B, Trail Making Test part B).
