Early identification of preclinical Alzheimer's disease (AD) is critically important. This study investigates whether early cognitive decline in preclinical AD can be detected through the executive functioning index R4Alz-pc by predicting memory-related worry and negative affect. A sample of 105 cognitively healthy, community-dwelling older adults (M = 59.25 years) completed the Multifactorial Memory Questionnaire (MMQ) and the R4Alz-pc index battery. Lower performance on the R4Alz-pc index was significantly associated with increased negative affect related to memory. Mediation analysis indicated that memory-related worry mediated the relationship between executive dysfunction and negative affect. This study highlights the importance of early, objective cognitive assessment using easy-to-administer and non-invasive tools like the R4Alz-pc, enabling timely detection and intervention for preclinical AD. Such methods may reduce reliance on costly biomarker-based diagnostics.
临床前阿尔茨海默病（AD）的早期识别至关重要。本研究通过预测与记忆相关的担忧和负面影响，调查是否可以通过执行功能指数R4Alz-pc检测临床前AD的早期认知衰退。105名认知健康、居住在社区的老年人（M = 59.25岁）完成了多因素记忆问卷（MMQ）和R4Alz-pc指数测试。R4Alz-pc指数表现较低与与记忆相关的负面影响增加显著相关。中介分析表明，与记忆相关的担忧介导了执行功能障碍与负面影响之间的关系。本研究强调了使用R4Alz-pc等易于实施且非侵入性的工具进行早期客观认知评估的重要性，从而能够对临床前AD进行及时检测和干预。此类方法可能会减少对基于昂贵生物标志物的诊断的依赖。
