Note: Normal memory or learning defined by performing at or above 1.5 standard deviation below the mean using published normative values. Impaired memory or learning defined by performance below 1.5 standard deviations below the normative mean. Normal functioning defined by a total score of 0 to 33 on the Activities of Daily Living Questionnaire (ADLQ) and impaired functioning was defined as a total ADLQ score above 33.

b
