The base rates of those who reported zero cognitive symptoms were consistently higher among the healthy samples (healthy men\u00a0=\u00a079.2%; all men\u00a0=\u00a063.9%; healthy women\u00a0=\u00a090.2%; all women\u00a0=\u00a080.0%).

As expected, individuals with a favorable overall health and quality of life reported less cognitive symptoms than the total sample, whereas individuals with mental health difficulties reported more. These normative values and base rates stratified by gender, overall health, and mental health status may be useful when interpreting this measure in clinical practice.<\/jats:p>\n
