Cognition
Relationship with NC
Related but distinct construct with NC from CFA
Path coefficients between NC and SC were 0.79 and 0.83
2-factors model of NC and SC had a better model fit
(Hoe et al., 2012, Sergi et al., 2007)
Social cognition - construct
Complex, multifaceted
Based on CONSENSUS/EXPERT SURVERY, rather than on
empirical ground

(A) Background
Why Cognition is a Concern for Persons with
Mental Illnesses
Why Cognition is a Concern? - 1
1. Cognitive impairment is a primary and core feature of
schizophrenia and is common among other psychiatric
diagnoses such as bipolar affective disorder, depression
or PTSD
Prevalence of cognitive impairment
70-75% schizophrenia (Keefe & Harvey, 2012)
5.3–57.7% in euthymic BD (Cullen et al., 2016)
Degree of cognitive impairment
0.9 to 2 S.D. below mean of healthy population in schizophrenia
(Heinrichs, 2005 ; Harvey and Keefe 1997; Saykin et al. 1991; Keefe et al. 2011;
Keefe et al., 2006)
0.5 to 1 S.D. below mean of healthy population in BAD (Lee et al., 2013;
Burdick et al., 2013)
Clinical stable Bipolar group N=68
Clinical stable SCZ group N= 38
Healthy control N=31
Why Cognition is a Concern? - 2
2. Cognition is an essential determinant of functional
outcomes (work, independent living, social)
Mean effect size = 0.50 (Green, 1996; Green et al., 2000)
An Example of Functional Implications
Functional Outcomes

(B) Cognitive Functional Evaluation (CFE)
What is CFE?
Role of OT in Cognitive Assessment
Assess key cognitive constructs in the performance of daily life
(capacity to live alone, work, or do any task that is important and
meaningful) (Baum & Edwards, 1993; Katz & Hartman-Maeir, 2005)
“attention” “memory”
Challenges
Complex processing (Burgess et al., 2006)
Client’s low awareness of their cognitive problems and implications in
daily life (Fleming et al., 1996; Katz & Hartman-Maeir, 2005)
The CFE process
Yields client’s cognitive strengths and weaknesses in OP
Uses by different disciplines: CFE for M&G, PG and SMI (cognitive seminar
Dec 2016)
The CFE Process
• Ascertain basic cognitive abilities
underlying OP
• Assessments are chosen according to
client’s characteristics
In-depth assessment
Stage 5:
Stage 4: Measures of specific
Tests for specific domains cognitive domains in
e.g. TEA, RBMT, Stroop occupations
Test, WCST, mWCST e.g. MIST/CAMPROPMT,
VCRS, SCSQ, FEIT
Stage 6:
Environmental assessment
Adopted from
Hartman-Maeir, Katz & Baum (2009)
CFE - Stage 1
CFE Process Stage 1
Interview and background information incl. an occupational history
Purposes Methods Choices of
Assessment
- Constructs client’s - Questionnaire - SCoRS (Keefe et al.,
OP profile 2006; 20 items)
* past - Comparison
* current between the - CGI-CogS (Ventura
et al., 2008; 21 items)
* future answers of the
client and a proxy
- CAI (Ventura et al.,
- Constructs client’s 2010; 10 items)
self-awareness - Comparison to test
performance
Cognitive Assessment Inventory (CAI)
FDA requests for functionally-relevant measure and Patient-
Reported Outcome on top of objective measure
Derived from SCoRS and CGI-CogS using factor analyses and IRT
Shorten version (10 item); Est time of adm.: 15+15 mins
Managed to shift attention when asked to do other tasks while performing an ongoing task
Required extra time to focus again
Verbal Learning and Memory
Reasoning and Problem Solving
Did not perceive any problems, e.g. she could think of alternatives to go to other restaurants
during peak hours and changed plan quite efficiently
Managed to answer all the questions as well as judgment questions from NCSE

coding

word every 2 seconds; 2 seconds interstimulus interval
Respondent is required to tell administrator the list of word
which the administrator read in all three learning trials

你告訴我你所記得的詞語。你可以用任何順序來告訴我那
些詞語。準備好了嗎?
Scoring:
Number of correctly reported words in 3 trials

C-FEIT
21 photos from JACFEE and JACNeuF
2 photos of each of 6 basic emotions (happiness, sadness, fear, anger, surprise, disgust)
9 photos of neutral faces
Photos are presented in random order using PowerPoint shown on computer
Time of exposure of each photo and time of rest between photos set at 10sec
Participants will be asked to choose the displayed emotion using on an answer
sheet
Total administration time: around 7 mins
C-FEIT – test construction
• Gold standard
• A similar photo set validated in Chin population
Choice of photo set (N=120; Yip & Lee, 2003)
(JACFEE and JACNeuF) • No validated comprehensive photo set that used
Chin faces (Gao et al., 2008)
• Chinese-language instruction
Standardized • Several parameters were standardized during
administrative administration (the time of exposure and time of
rest in between two photos were each fixed at
procedures 10 seconds; screen size of less than 18 inches,
and with an arm’s length)
