Abstract
In the future of super aging society, it is predicted that the problem of disuse dementia becomes more serious all over the world. The screening is very important medical procedure for recovery. In Japan, KANA Pick-out Test(KPT)1–2) have been used as the most useful method of screening. As KPT isn’t suitable for internationalization and self-screening, Color Meaning and Matching Test(CMMT) was invented first3), and Color Word Pick-out Test(CWPT)4) follows as an advanced method. In this paper, the sensitivity of CWPT on the basis of KPT was measured as the first evaluation. As the second evaluation, the work of prefrontal lobe was examined during the tests using a near infrared spectroscopy. These evaluations are led to appropriateness of CWPT to the screening test of early dementia.
