PsychINFO, from 2000 to 2013 to look for functional assessments that have been used to detect MCI. The following search terms, both as MeSH terms (in italics) and as keywords, were used to identify potentially relevant studies. The terms were first searched in Medline and then subsequently tailored for searches in other databases: mild cognitive impairment (MeSH) or cognition disorder (MeSH) and functional assessments (MeSH) or and activities of daily living (MeSH) or activit*. Studies were eligible if they were published in English and used an instrument to assess functional performance in individuals with MCI. The instruments were then classified into type (e.g., performance-based, questionnaire, informant report, etc...), performance based components assessed (organization, initiation, planning, remembering, etc...), MCI subtype and scoring. Results: Several studies examining functional assessments in individuals with MCI have been identified. The studies differed in terms of MCI classification, types of assessments, scoring and performance based components of the assessments. Conclusions: The results of this study will help us to have a better understanding of how functional criteria have been utilized in the literature. It will further help us to map out the specific gaps in this area and propose approaches to close those gaps.
