A telemedical interface for at-home cognitive testing

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: The COVID-19 pandemic has limited in-lab cognitive testing. While at-home alternatives exist (testing over the phone), differences in test design and delivery complicate direct comparison of most in-lab and at-home tests. Here we describe the design, infrastructure, and implementation of the California Cognitive Assessment Battery (CCAB), a cognitive test battery and administration system. Using automated remote administration over cellular networks, identical computerized cognitive tests can be administered at-home or in the lab.
