Neurocognitive Domains
The criteria for the various NCDs are all base d on defined cognitive domains. Table 1 pro-
vides for each of the key domains a working definition, examples of  symptoms or obser-
vations regarding impairments in everyday activities, and examples of assessments. The
domains thus defined, along with guidelines  for clinical thresholds, form the basis on
which the NCDs, their levels, and their subtypes may be diagnosed.
