Abstract:Background: Older adults with preclinical Alzheimer’s disease (AD) show changes in on-road driving performance. The impact of preclinical AD on using automated vehicle (AV) technology is unknown. The aim was to evaluate safety and cognitive workload while operating AV technology in drivers with preclinical AD.
Methods: This cross-sectional study included 40 participants: 19 older adults (age 74.16 ± 4.78; MOCA scores 26.42 ± 2.52) with preclinical AD, evidenced by elevated cortical beta-amyloid; and 21 control… Show more
