Alz puzzles
Alzheimer puzzles are a series of cognitive tests designed to screen for early signs of Alzheimer’s disease. The puzzles are also used to help measure the progression of the disease. There are three puzzles in the series: the clock, the matchstick, and the tower.
The clock puzzle consists of a series of clocks, each with a different time displayed. The goal is to determine the time on the clock that is shown in the middle.
The matchstick puzzle consists of a series of matchsticks, each with a different number of sticks displayed. The goal is to determine the number of sticks on the matchstick in the middle.
The tower puzzle consists of a series of blocks, each with a different number of blocks displayed. The goal is to determine the number of blocks on the block in the middle.
The puzzles are typically administered to people over the age of 55 who have no history of dementia. The puzzles are also used to monitor the progression of Alzheimer’s disease in people who have been diagnosed with the disease.
The clock puzzle is the most commonly used puzzle in the series. It is used to screen for early signs of Alzheimer’s disease. The clock puzzle is also used to measure the progression of the disease.
