Certainly! If you’re concerned about memory loss or cognitive changes, there are free self-assessment quizzes that can help you evaluate whether you might be experiencing early signs of dementia. Keep in mind that these quizzes are not diagnostic tools, but they can serve as a valuable first step toward seeking professional evaluation and support.

Here are a few options:

  1. Do I Have Dementia? 3 Minute Dementia Quiz:

    • This quiz assesses symptoms related to memory, communication, and thought processes associated with dementia.
    • It covers domains such as executive functioning, attention, perceptual-motor ability, social interactions, learning/memory, and daily activities.
    • Remember, it’s not a substitute for professional diagnosis, but it can provide insights.
    • You can take the quiz here ¹.

  2. SAGE Test (Self-Administered Gerocognitive Exam):

    • The SAGE test is an at-home assessment that detects early signs of Alzheimer’s or dementia by evaluating cognitive abilities.
    • It’s free and takes about 15 minutes to complete.
    • You can find the SAGE test here ².

  3. Alzheimer’s Test: 12 Questions:

    • This pen-and-paper test is free and takes just 15 minutes.
    • It accurately identifies early symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease or dementia.
    • Learn more about it here ⁴.

Remember, if you suspect dementia or any other mental health condition, seek help from a licensed healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis and support. They can guide you through further evaluation, including cognitive screening, physical exams, and lab tests ¹³…

prob not that accurate. i also have a short term memory processing disorder so im sure that effects the score. i bet i do get dementia in old age tho. my family member is already always telling me “you already asked me that 3 times” “i just answered that question” blah blah

Yeah but why do you suspect you have it? Negative symptoms can present very similar.

The first test listed asked me for my credit card info so it’s not free. And I don’t want to do the pdf test. Bummer.
