Acquired brain injuries can lead to subtle cognitive impairments that are often difficult to detect, yet significantly influence long-term functional outcomes. Cog-First was developed as a self-administered, tablet-based cognitive screening tool designed to evaluate executive function, memory, and attention in approximately 20 minutes, starting from the acute phase after brain injury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To establish reliable normative data for Cog-First, allowing patient scores to be compared against a standardized reference population.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A cross-sectional study was conducted on 406 healthy French-speaking volunteers recruited from the Paris Brain Institute database. Each participant completed the seven Cog-First subtests under standardized conditions. A subsample of 95 participants repeated an alternative version of the test one month later to assess the test-retest effect. The influence of sex, age, education, and test version was analyzed using generalized linear models (GLMs). Correction formulas were derived to adjust scores and generate standardized percentiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sex, age, education, and test version significantly influenced several subscores. Test-retest analyses revealed a learning effect in four out of seven subtests. Corrected scores enabled the establishment of an automated standardization process integrated into the Cog-First software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This standardization provides reliable norms for the clinical interpretation of Cog-First results, supporting early detection of cognitive impairments and guiding patient care.
