∗p < 0.05. χ2: chi-square; MC: Mini-Cog; MMC: modified Mini-Cog; SST: serial subtraction task; MPT: multistep performance task; CDT: clock drawing test; DSRS: Dementia Severity Rating Scale. All distractors were scored either 2 (correct) or 0 (incorrect). The CDT scoring in MC followed the rules empirically developed for the standardized version of the Mini-Cog (http://mini-cog.com).
