Online cognitive assessment for monitoring brain health

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

The Boston Cognitive Assessment (BoCA) is an online, self-administered test designed for ongoing cognitive monitoring in individuals aged 50 and older. It features random, non-repeating tasks across eight cognitive domains to minimize learning effects and provide accurate assessments of cognitive performance. The test generates immediate feedback on domain scores and overall cognitive health, helping healthcare providers identify potential underlying conditions affecting cognition. By leveraging digital technology, BoCA aims to improve access to cognitive testing and support better treatment outcomes.
