85 Evaluating the Improvement on the Naturalistic Action Task After the Virtual Kitchen Intervention: A Case Study Open
Objective: The goal-control model of the functional impairment in dementia posits two different underlying mechanisms: decay of task goals (reduced task accomplishment) and poor control over goal execution (high error rates). Here we prese…

68 Associations between within-domain intraindividual variability and functional abilities in cognitively healthy older adults Open
Objective: Cognitive performance, particularly in the domains of memory and executive functioning (EF), have been shown in previous research to predict decline in everyday functioning in older adults. The goal-control model posits that epi…

Preliminary data on micro errors as a sensitive measure of everyday functioning in older adults Open
Background Mild difficulties with daily tasks are associated with cognitive abilities and future cognitive decline but are difficult to measure objectively. Performance‐based tests with high task demands (e.g., multitasking, prospective me…
