BACKGROUND
The purpose of this study was to characterize the cognitive performance of individuals with animal hoarding.
METHODS
This is a cross-sectional study, in which 33 individuals between the ages of 29 to 84 (M = 61.39; SD = 12.69) with animal hoarding have been assessed. The participants completed a neurocognitive battery including measures of general cognitive functioning, visual memory and organization, verbal fluency, and verbal reasoning.
RESULTS
Data suggest that individuals with animal hoarding have high rates of cognitive deficits related to visual memory and verbal reasoning.
CONCLUSIONS
Based on the performance tests used, we can suggest the existence of cognitive difficulties related especially to the executive functions of individuals with animal hoarding in this sample.
背景
本研究旨在描述囤积动物者的认知表现。
方法
这是一项横断面研究，纳入了 33 名年龄在 29 至 84 岁之间（M=61.39；SD=12.69）的囤积动物者。参与者完成了神经认知测试，包括一般认知功能、视觉记忆和组织、言语流畅性和言语推理等方面的测试。
结果
数据表明，囤积动物者存在与视觉记忆和言语推理相关的高比率认知缺陷。
结论
根据使用的表现测试，我们可以推测出该样本中囤积动物者的认知困难主要与执行功能有关。
