Abstract

Nowadays, the world population is aging seriously, and the decline of the elderly’s cognitive ability has become a severe problem. Cognitive ability refers to the human brain’s ability to process, store and extract information. Cognitive decline refers to a significant and measurable decrease or abnormality in various aspects of an individual’s cognitive function, which might affect people’s daily lives. Many factors affect mental ability, such as subjective cognitive ability decline and objective elements. It is essential to clarify the factors affecting cognitive ability and find proper ways to accurately evaluate a human’s cognitive ability. Judging the reasons for the decline in cognition by analysing four factors, Using the three scales of Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) and Boston Naming Test (BNT) for subjective evaluation, Objective evaluations were performed using Electroencephalography (EEG) and Quantitative Electroencephalogram (QEEG). Evaluate from a variety of perspectives. This paper summarises some influencing factors and contrasts typical evaluation methods of cognitive ability, which might reference future studies in alleviating the decline or accurate evaluation of cognitive ability.
