About this trial

Objective: The purpose of this study is to assess the psychometric qualities of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) version 8.x in Greek, including the MoCA-MIS. We intend to examine the tool's reliability (internal consistency, test-retest reliability) and validity (construct validity, concurrent validity, and known-group validity).

Aim: The findings will support the tool's application for early cognitive impairment identification in clinical and research settings.
