The aim of our study was to investigate and compare the cognitive performance of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and dementia patients with that of children, adolescents and adults, using a worldwide screening tool, the Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE), and considering the age, educational level and mental status of the participants.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Methods:\u2003<\/jats:bold> Our sample included 1364 Greek participants and consisted of normal children, adolescents, adults and non\u2010demented, MCI and demented elderly participants.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results:\u2003<\/jats:bold> The variables of age, education and mental status influenced the participant's performance in the MMSE, but sex did not. The smallest variance of the MMSE score was found in 16\u201318\u2010year\u2010old adolescents, a big variance was found in 7\u20138\u2010year\u2010old children, while the biggest was in 71\u201390\u2010year\u2010olds. Alzheimer's disease (AD) participants performed poorer than the 7\u20138\u2003years old children, though MCI participants showed similar cognitive performance to that age\u2010group. The participants with 7\u20139\u2003years of schooling and those with more than 9\u2003years had no significant difference in their MMSE performance.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusion:\u2003<\/jats:bold> Comparing cognitive performance between subgroups, our results indicated that MCI patients have a similar cognitive performance to that of 7\u20138\u2010year\u2010old children and AD patients' a poorer one than that group.
