  1. There are two tests. I suspect that he had to take both but is mixing them up. If your doctor makes you take the longer one your doctor suspects that something is very wrong (probably based on the results of the shorter test).

  2. He probably has taken the short one (the one Haley handed out) and the longer one. You only take the longer one when there is reason to think something is seriously wrong.

  4.  @alananderson5929  there are at least three tests: Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Montreal Cognitive Assessment-Chinese Version (MoCA-CV), and Memory and Executive Screening (MES). The MoCa seems to be more usefull in early stages than the Minimental State Evaluation Test (MMSE). The Alzheimer's Disease Assesment Scale-Cognitive Test seems to be more through than the MMSE and is used for supected early stages (it has 11 parts). The Cognitive Test for Severe Dementia (CTSD), consists of 13 items covering 7 cognitive domains and apparently is quite useful in severe cases. And I just found the Neuropsychiatric Inventory Questionnaire (NPI-Q).

  5. I am not sure if this is a good idea. What happens when someone attempts to take it and realises that something is not right?

  6. ​ @ArjanKop he is considering that. He knows his family and the people living in the US will not be safe under Trump. He is placing the interest of the US over his own.
