Questionnaire: Mental Confusion Scale (MCS)

Cristian A. Nica

Questionnaire: Mental Confusion Scale (MCS) available now at cristiannica.co.uk

This instrument is meant to assess the level of confusion as a result of impaired cognitive abilities in relation to both psychological and biological factors. It is an indicator of prolonged distress or neurological deterioration and correlates with the onset of dementia or Alzheimer's disease.

The questionnaire includes a total of 39 items organized into nine subscales as follows:

Seven subscales of four items each (attention, behavior, command processing, depression, memory, orientation, and verbal abilities).
Two subscales of 11 items (general monitoring and vital functions), meant to be used as health indicators only.

A general score indicates the level of confusion, while the nine subscales provide a more in-depth perspective regarding the health factors that explain mental capacity.

This questionnaire is meant to be administered as a self-report, but it can also be used by family members to assess their own perception of the signs displayed by a relative who is unable to understand abstract information or follow complex instructions.
