Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is an established risk factor for dementia but mechanisms are uncertain.

Brief TBI screens, commonly used in epidemiological studies of cognitive aging, are insensitive, leading to exposure mis-classification. Comprehensive TBI interviews, while more sensitive, may be impractical.
