Abstract

Functional skills are associated with cognition, though less so in Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI). Seventy-one older adults with MCI were administered measures of cognition (RBANS) and functioning (ILS). Significant relationships were found between these two measures (p’s<.05). In this functionally intact sample, cognition continues to inform daily functioning.
