The Weekly Calendar Planning Activity to Assess Functional Cognition in Parkinson Disease.

ABSTRACT: The Weekly Calendar Planning Activity (WCPA) may improve understanding of functional cognition in people with Parkinson disease (PwPD) without dementia. We aimed to determine if WCPA performance (a) discriminates between PwPD with and without cognitive impairment and healthy controls and (b) correlates with other indicators of cognition and daily function. This was a cross-sectional study.

Their WCPA performance was compared with that of a normative sample (n = 196) and correlated with neuropsychological test performance and self-reported cognition and participation. Both the PD-MCI and PD-NC groups had
