Executive Functions in Latin American Older Adults: Exploring the Concept Shifting Test and Its Relationship with the <i>APOE Gene</i> in a Cross‐Sectional Sample from the LatAm‐FINGERS Study

Weak correlations between CST shifting, Stroop-flexibility, and fluency tasks suggest they assess different EF aspects. The moderate CST-TMT correlation may indicate refined cognitive flexibility measurement in CST. While useful for EF assessment in LA, CST doesn't replace TMT. Diverse tools are crucial for early dementia detection. The lack of association between APOE-ε4 and cognitive scores emphasizes the importance of assessment regardless of genetic risk.
