Study of changes in people who feel their thinking is getting worse
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at how people’s thoughts and memory feel to them when they report subjective cognitive decline, using questionnaires and assessments. It may help researchers understand this early “thinking feels worse” stage and what it looks like in real life.
