Evidence-based cognitive assessments grounded in clinical research
Mindmore is built on well-established neuropsychological assessments with a strong scientific foundation and proven reliability in both research and clinical practice.
Tests recognized by neuropsychologists worldwide
Platform-specific normative data
Modernized test administration and results generation
Well-known tests
Mindmore's tests are well-known neuropsychological tests that have been used clinically and in research for many years.
Wilhelm Wundts psykologilaboratorium, Leipzig Tyskland 1879.
Neuropsychologists around the world use the tests that Mindmore chooses to digitize in their clinics [1] . The sensitivity of the included tests has been studied extensively [2,3] . For example, performance on the Trail Making Test (TMT [4] ) Part B in older people is associated with problems with everyday complex activities [5] , while in younger people it may be an indication or symptom of depression [6] or chronic stress [7,8] .

Platform-specific normative data
Mindmore has a normative database of data from over 1,200 healthy adults, essential for interpreting test results [3,21,22] . Our results portal uses advanced, regression-based models to compare each patient’s test score to expected values based on age, gender, education level, and input method [23,24] . The methodology was published in 2022 [25] , and the database was updated in 2024. A recent study shows that our tests have high test-retest reliability and learning effects comparable to paper-based tests.

Tests are carefully tailored for self-administration on a digital platform
Mindmore modernizes test administration while maintaining the strengths and evidence associated with traditional tests [14–16] . The digital platform guides the patient through the tests using original instructions and feedback. Clinicians have access to all traditional test scores, such as the number of correct answers, manually corrected audio transcripts for the verbal fluency test [17] , as well as index, interference, and congruent and incongruent test scores for the Stroop test [3,18] , etc.

A popular tool for research
The tests in Mindmore's platform are used in research collaborations due to their ease of use; tests are simple to administer. Mindmore offers automatic scoring and standardization, as well as immediate access to collected data. The traditional tests that Mindmore has chosen to digitize have been tested and proven by researchers for decades – now these findings are being replicated and built upon by researchers who choose to use Mindmore in their research.

Cognition can simply be described as the thought processes that the brain uses to take in, process, store and retrieve information. Cognition is usually divided into a number of functions, or domains:
Memory, attention, language, visuospatial ability and executive function.
Our cognitive functions mean that we can:
-
Interpret and understand information
-
Maintain attention and concentration
-
Remember and learn new things
-
Plan, organize and prioritize
-
Solve problems and make good decisions
-
Understand language and communicate
Together, these functions are among the most important we have for a well-functioning brain health. The cognitive functions often work together - for example, attention is required to focus on information, so that it can be stored in the memory bank. Studying only a cognitive function in isolation therefore seldom gives an exhaustive picture of how an individual functions cognitively.
