Proposed Analysis: | I am studying psychology at the ZHAW School of Applied Psychology and I am writing my bachelor's thesis on the "Progression of MCI". My research question is: "How strong is the correlation between the progression of MCI and the factors memory performance, language performance and IQCODE?" For this empirical thesis I am using patient data already collected by Memory Clinics. There should be about 12 months between the initial assessment and the second assessment. For the statistical evaluation I need: - Demographic data (date of birth, gender, years of education) - Date of initial and secondary checks - Initial diagnosis (which type of MCI) and second diagnosis - Results of minimental status exam and clock completion (Watson) - Values from CERAD (Morris et al.): - IQCODE Patients who have been diagnosed with MCI due to depression and/or delirium in the initial assessment are excluded. I am doing my Bachelor internship at the Memory Clinic. For the required sample size, we have too few volunteers because it is difficult to get data from other Memory Clinics in Switzerland due to privacy policy. Therefore I would like to have access to your data set. They will not be passed on or used for other purposes. This thesis will not be published or freely accessible. Many thanks for your great support. |
