Description

<p>Dementia is associated with several social issues, and its prevention warrants urgent attention. Preventive interventions are effective when implemented in the pre-clinical stage of dementia (PCSD); therefore, early detection of PCSD is essential. We developed the color Kanji Pick-out Test (CKPT), a neuropsychological test to diagnose PCSD. However, there are several issues associated with the questionnaire version of the CKPT, which precludes widespread use. In an attempt to overcome these difficulties, we designed the CKPT application that can easily be administered by any individual using a common tablet device, which displays the results immediately. We are engaged in improving this application further to ensure that the orientation of the test, control of the measurement time, scoring, and feedback of the results can be performed automatically. We present an overview of the CKPT application that is currently being developed, together with its prospective uses.</p>
