Article Synopsis
- Cognitive impairment is often overlooked in generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), prompting a study to assess cognitive performance in GAD patients compared to those without the disorder.
- Researchers tested 263 patients using different cognitive tests, revealing that those with GAD were slower in a specific task (the TMT) but faster in recognizing negative emotions.
- While the TMT can identify GAD with decent accuracy, it is less effective than the GAD-7 questionnaire and highlights the need for further exploration of cognitive issues in GAD.
