This study evaluated cognitive test performance in African-American and Europeans-American Alzheimer's disease patients with equivalent years of education.Group differences were negligible on a variety of memory, language,and attention measures,including several widely used neuropsychological tests.Differences between racial groups observed in earlier studies may have stemmed,in part,from the differences in education,which may itself serve as a proxy for other potentially important sociologic and health variables. |
