Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Driving is an important activity for older adults because it frequently relates to personal independence and wellbeing. This study compared the driving behaviors of older drivers with normal cognition and with MCI in unfamiliar driving situations and difficult maneuvers, and explored the practice effect on driving performance of drivers with MCI. This study used an observational, cross-section research design.

- description
- The participants firstly completed a questionnaire of driving history and perceived driving competence, followed with a clinical physical and cognitive-perceptual assessment battery conducted by an occupational therapist to note any potential deficits that might affect driving performance. The participants, on a separate visit, completed three practice runs of a closed-circuit standardized course that included 8 driving maneuvers, followed by an on-road driving in the community fir 30 minutes.
