The study recruited 114 individuals who were at least 3 months after the onset of a first-ever unilateral stroke. The MoCA-T was administered twice, at a 6-week interval, to all participants. The relative reliability was assessed using the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), and the absolute reliability was assessed using standard error of measurement (SEM), the smallest real difference (SRD), the SRD percentage, and the Bland-Altman method. The ICC analysis showed the MoCA-T was highly reliable (ICC\u2005=\u20050.85). The absolute reliability was between an acceptable and excellent level, where the SEM and the SRD at the 95% confidence interval were 1.38 and 3.83, respectively. The Bland-Altman analyses showed no systematic bias between repeated measurements. The range of the 95% limits of agreement was narrow, indicating a high level of stability over time. These findings suggest that the MoCA-T has high agreement between repeated measurements without systematic bias. The threshold to detect real change stands between an acceptable and excellent level. The MoCA-T is a reliable tool for cognitive screening in stroke rehabilitation.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1097\/mrr.0000000000000612","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,7]],"date-time":"2024-02-07T15:01:36Z","timestamp":1707318096000},"page":"46-51","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Reliability
