Abstract: Anxiety and depression scores were higher in participants with below average Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MOCA) score [F(1,113) = 5.952; p<.05 and F(1,113) = 3.989; p<.05, respectively], who also reported worse perceived quality of life [F(1,427) = 14.085; p<.001]. Perceived quality of life was the stronger predictor of MOCA score.
