The Moroccan MoCA test: Translation, cultural adaptation, and validation.

Purpose: Dementia includes all the symptoms associated with declining mental and cognitive skills, resulting in an inability to perform daily activities.

Objectives: We aimed to translate and adapt the Montréal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) test into the Moroccan cultural context. We compared the sensitivity and specificity between MoCA and Mini-Mental State of Folstein (MMS) in the screening of dementia.
