Multiple regression analysis was used to test the predictive value of SCCs at baseline, controlling depression, age and years of schooling on general cognitive performance at follow-up. Results: SCCs correlated significantly with depression, general cognitive performance and episodic memory at baseline (Table 2). General cognitive performance at follow-up was predicted by SCCs from informants at baseline jointly with age and years of schooling explaining 46% of the variance (Model 4 in Table 3), but not by depression (Model 2 in Table 3). Conclusions:SCCs are correlated with depression, general cognitive performance and episodic memory at baseline. SCCs from informants but not depression are relevant in the prediction of cognitive performance over time.
