Developing a Culturally Competent Neuropsychological Assessment Battery for Farsi-speaking Patients with Suspected Dementia

CONCLUSIONS: The number of neuropsychological measures available in Farsi and/or with normative data for Farsi speakers is extremely limited. Cognitive tests either developed for or validated with a bilingual Farsi-English sample also represent a significant gap in the literature. Appropriate measures for these populations are urgently needed to provide a culturally competent assessment of a growing older adult segment of an underserved community.PMID:36988547 | DOI:10.1093/arclin/acac099
