This study compared the GPCOG to the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), the most widely used test, in terms of their ability to detect likely dementia in primary care. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Methods:&lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt; General practitioners across three states in Australia recruited 2,028 elderly patients from the community. A research nurse administered the GPCOG and the MMSE, as well as the Cambridge Examination for Mental Disorders of the Elderly Cognitive Scale-Revised that we used to define likely dementia. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Results:&lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt; Overall, the GPCOG and the MMSE were similarly effective at detecting likely dementia. The GPCOG, however, had a higher sensitivity than the MMSE when using published cutpoints. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Conclusion:&lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt; The GPCOG is an effective screening tool for dementia in primary care. It appears to be a viable alternative to the MMSE, whilst also requiring less time to administer.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000450992","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,11,3]],"date-time":"2016-11-03T22:01:29Z","timestamp":1478210489000},"page":"323-330","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":41,"title":["Screening for Dementia in Primary Care: A Comparison of the GPCOG and the MMSE"],"prefix":"10.1159","volume":"42","author":[{"given":"Henry","family":"Brodaty","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Michael H.","family":"Connors","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Clement","family":"Loy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Armando","family":"Teixeira-Pinto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Nigel","family":"Stocks","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Jane","family":"Gunn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Karen E.","family":"Mate","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"C.
