Telepsychiatry for Neurocognitive Testing in Older Rural Latino Adults

Description
Examines two methods of neurocognitive assessments, telepsychiatry and in-person, using the same Spanish-language battery for testing to determine whether they are comparable among Spanish-speaking older adults in a rural setting. Includes telepsychiatry and in-person assessment data by education, acculturation, health literacy, depression, and a mini mental state exam.
