Doesn't the child raping bag 'o fuck go on and on

About identifying a giraffe on the Montreal Cognitive Test? Well, here’s the exam and I don’t see a giraffe.

Yeah, I know, maybe there are different versions, but this does make me go hmmmmm.



And although the fucking oxygen thief likes to tell lies about doing a series of arithmetic functions, the only vaguely, third-grade math question is to count back by 7 from 60.

1. That exam is for normal people. Trump got the simplified one.

It took him two hours to solve it.

And he used a hammer.

[Aviation Pro]

2. He should have used the hammer on....

…..his fucking, fat head.

Good lord, I have never hated a man so much in my life.

[Irish_Dem]

3. BTW Trump is compromising the integrity of these tests.

He should not constantly go on and on about the content of the test protocol.

This is supposed to be non disclosed to maintain the novel exposure
to subjects.

[Ms. Toad]

9. The tests are readily available to anyone with access to the internet.

They are designed to be tests of gross cognitive losses - at a level significant enough that knowing the test ahead of time would make no difference.

[Irish_Dem]

11. I disagree.

1. Trump is giving much more exposure to the test contents than is typical with psych testing.

2. Prior exposure could significantly change the score.
Some people could be coached to gain points.

[Ms. Toad]

14. If your cognitive abilities are poor enough that you are at risk for failing the test,

you are beyond coaching. I'm speaking as someone whose spouse scores a perfect 30 each time - AND - is diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment and taking wo Alzheimer's medications. (Her diagnosis was based on a full battery of tests over 2 days). Also as someone with a mother with much more advanced dementia who might still be able to pass the test but for the fact that she can't see or hear. The MOCA is simply a gross screening test.)

Go take the test yourself. Anyone of average intelligence over the age of 10-ish should be scoring 30/30. Well, maybe not 30/30 since the clock used is an analog clock and the young-uns might not have enough exposure to analog clocks to be able to properly draw numbers and hands at 5 past 10.

[Irish_Dem]

16. You are incorrect on all your points.

I am speaking as a PhD psychologist with a specialty in psych testing.

Spent over 40 years administering, scoring, interpreting psych tests
and writing reports for courts, school, employers, and government agencies.

But I am not going to teach a crash course on psychometrics.

And I don't need to take these tests, I helped do the norming for them
as a doctoral candidate.

[Ms. Toad]

18. Then please provide me with a link to a single study

which suggests that advance exposure to the MOCA (specifically - not psych tests generally, or "these" tests) impairs its validity as a screening tool for dementia (or any of the other conditions for which it is used).

Just JFC!

5. Chump's "cognitive" test was done on his phone

[Vinca]

6. He probably thinks the duck is a giraffe. And if the king says it is so, it must be a flying giraffe.

[lame54]

8. New executive order...

All ducks are now giraffes

[Initech]

7. He's getting cognitive tests all the time because he has dementia!

What the GOP is doing is straight elder abuse. The only reason Trump is there is because they have no one else who has the star power that he does.

[Ms. Toad]

10. No. Cognitive assessments are a standard part of elder care (anyone 65 or older).

Your doctor doesn't have to administer any specific test - but if he chooses to use a test to make the cognitive assessment, the MOCA is a standard tool.

(This is an annual Medicare requirement, and most physicians follow the Medicare standard - even if the patient isn't on Medicare coverage.)

[Irish_Dem]

12. Initech you are correct.

It is obvious that Trump is being administered cognitive tests frequently.
Because they are assessing his mental status every week it appears.

I also agree, this is elder abuse. Trump should be retired with no stress
and no responsibilities.

[Initech]

13. He should be in a nursing home under 24/7 supervision.

[Irish_Dem]

15. He should be in a supermax prison in solitary confinement.

Or in a locked psych facility.

[Initech]

19. Agree there!

[spanone]

17. What's amazing is he's the only person on earth who got it all right...

FUCKING IDIOT.

[FakeNoose]

20. Because Stephen Miller "phoned" him the correct answers

Sh-sh-sh-sh-sh!

[spanone]

21. Squirrel was really, really tough
