This research study asks people diagnosed with neurocognitive disorders to use a driving simulator — a realistic setup that mimics driving — while researchers watch and take notes. After each simulation task, you'll answer questions about how you think you did, and trained observers will also rate your performance. By comparing your own assessment with the experts' assessment, doctors hope to create a reliable tool to understand whether people with cognitive changes are safe drivers.
As people age, more are developing memory and thinking problems that can affect driving ability — but doctors don't always have a clear, reliable way to tell if someone should keep driving or not. Stopping driving too abruptly can lead to depression and a loss of independence, so this research aims to create a better assessment tool to help people and their doctors make safer, more informed decisions about driving.

You will visit a research center and sit at a driving simulator station, which recreates the experience of driving a car. You'll complete several driving tasks on the simulator while two trained observers watch and rate how well you drive. After each task, you'll answer straightforward questions about how you think you performed. The researchers will then compare your self-assessment with what the observers saw, helping to create a score that shows how well you can accurately judge your own driving ability.
