Popis: This paper investigates whether Klondike Solitaire can be used as an assessment tool for mild cognitive impairment (MCI). It does so by providing a structured analysis and mapping player actions to cognitive functions. For Klondike Solitaire, 22 player actions were defined and mapped to 10 cognitive functions by 3 health professionals in the field of MCI. The results indicate that Attention, Executive Function, Object Recognition, Abstraction and Memory can be assessed through gameplay of Solitaire. Healthcare professionals confirmed that this can potentially be valuable, as it can screen for cognitive impairments longitudinally, in a non-intrusive way, without practice effects. ispartof: pages:269-276 ispartof: CHI PLAY'17 Extended Abstracts pages:269-276 ispartof: CHI PLAY location:Amsterdam date:15 Oct - 18 Oct 2017 status: published
