Existing methods of cognitive screening typically rely on face-to-face assessments by a clinician, and they are infrequently administered. They can also be time consuming and costly to administer. As a supplement to existing methods of cognitive screening, we propose the use of serious games, which are games designed for a primary purpose other than entertainment. Serious games can potentially assess a variety of factors associated with cognitive decline in conditions such as delirium, dementia, and frailty. In this paper, we show that a serious game that assesses executive functioning shows the potential for using a future generation of serious games to screen for delirium and dementia, and we also demonstrate a statistically significant relationship of performance on our serious game with frailty and functional status. We also discuss the development and use of additional serious games that focus on the assessment of specific cognitive functions that are affected by the progression of dementia. 6.1 MEN-ASSESS University of Toronto, Sunnybrook Health Sciences | Scientific Excellence - Advancing Knowledge | 2016-10-11 | | Improving the Ergonomics of Cognitive Assessment with Serious GamesTong, T., Yeung, J., Sandrakumar, J., Chignell, M., Tierney, M.
