Abbreviations: ADsig, Alzheimer’s disease signature; FBP PET, [18F] florbetapir positron emission tomography; FDG PET, [18F] fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography; MRI, magnetic resonance imaging.

NOTE. Spearman correlation coefficients are shown above the diagonal. Cohen's Kappa index for each pair of scores are shown below de diagonal; the first line in each box refers to the whole sample (n = 711), whereas the second line refers to the subset of subjects in the AD continuum (n = 397; positive FBP PET); *, P < .05; ns, non-significant.

NOTE. In bold: correlation coefficients and Cohen's Kappa indexes with at least a moderate correlation (Rho > 0.5) or a substantial agreement (k > 0.6), respectively.
