- The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) is a widely used screening assessment for detecting cognitive impairment. It was created in 1996 by Ziad Nasreddine in Montreal, Quebec. It was validated in the setting of mild cognitive impairment, and has subsequently been adopted in numerous other settings clinically. This test consists of 30 points and takes part in 10 minutes from the individual. The Montreal test is performed in seven steps (its English version), which may change in some countries dependent on education and culture. The basics of this test include short-term memory, executable performance, attention, focus and more.
