Unawareness of Cognitive Deficit (Cognitive Anosognosia) in Probable AD and Control Subjects
Neurol 64:693-699, Barrett, A.M., et al, 2005
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
This anosognosia assessment method may allow more detailed examination of distorted self-awareness. These results suggest that screening for anosognosia in probable Alzheimer disease (pAD) should include self-estimates of visuospatial function, and that, in pAD, it may be useful to assess anosognosia for amnesia both before and after memory testing.
