Herein, we tested the validity and generalizability of remote administration of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) test. To address these challenges, in the last decade, the utilization of remote testing platforms has demonstrated promising results regarding the feasibility and efficiency of collecting patient data online. Consequently, studies are often based on small sample sizes, are highly time-consuming, and lack diversity. Traditional in-person neuropsychological studies are inherently difficult to conduct because testing requires the recruitment and participation of individuals with neurological conditions. There is a critical need for accessible neuropsychological testing for basic research and translational studies worldwide.
