were evaluated through the Memory Complaint Scale (MCS), forms A and B3, Addenbrooke’s Cognitive Examination– Revised (ACER)4, Mini Mental State Exam (MMSE)4, Isolated Cognitive Test (TCI), Timed Up and Go Test (TUG) e Timed Up and Go Test associated a to dual task of phone dialing (TUGDT). Results: 51 elders were evaluated, with majority of women, median of 71 years old, median of schooling of 4 years, median of TCI time of 16.0 seconds, median of TUG time of 11.9 seconds and median of TUGDT time of 26.6 seconds. With Spearman’s test were not found correlations between MCSA and TCI time (p1⁄40.836), TUG time (p1⁄40.536) and TUGDT time (p1⁄40.922), neither between MCSB and TCI time (p1⁄40.873), TUG time (p1⁄40.534) and TUGDT time(p1⁄40.188). On the other hand were ascertained correlations between ACER and TCI time (p1⁄40.000/r1⁄4.490), TUG time (p1⁄40.009/r1⁄4.364), and TUGDT time (p1⁄40.000/r1⁄4.553) and also MMSE and TCI time (p1⁄40.000/r1⁄4.561), TUG time (p1⁄40.038/r1⁄4.291) and TUGDT time (p1⁄40.000/r1⁄4.526). Conclusions: The memory complaints do not contemplate possible functionality debts, in contrast with the TUG and TUGDT performances that are affected by cognition. Therefore, including mobility tests in elders’ cognitive evaluations showed to be of great value for improving diagnostics reliability.
