Bold font denotes p<.05. MDRS=Mattis Dementia Rating Scale; Global NP=global neuropsychological performance (calculated as an average of all individual cognitive measures); MMAA= Medication Management Abilities Assessment; UPSA= UCSD Performance-Based Skills Assessment; IADL=Instrumental Activities of Daily Living Scale. All cognitive domains report results using T-scores (M±SD=50±10, range 20–80), except for MDRS total score, which is expressed as a total raw score (range 0-144).
