Measure
Apolipoprotein E (APOE) Genotype Non-Disclosure
Subjects will receive Alzheimer's disease risk disclosure. This assessment is based on age and MCI status alone. Alzheimer's disease risk disclosure: Subjects with MCI will learn a three-year numerical risk estimate for the chance of progressing to dementia of the Alzheimer's type.
Apolipoprotein E (APOE) Genotype Disclosure
Subjects will receive both APOE genotype and Alzheimer's disease risk disclosure. The assessment is based on age, MCI status, and genotype. APOE genotype and Alzheimer's disease risk disclosure: Subjects with MCI will learn their own APOE genotype and a three-year numerical risk estimate for the chance of progressing to dementia of the Alzheimer's type.

Non-serious adverse events were defined as scores at any time including baseline, on psychological outcome scales greater than or equal to 56 on the STAI (anxiety), 8 on the GDS (depression) or 2 on the BHS (hopelessness). Non-serious adverse events were identified at the judgment of study personnel as events that caused inconvenience or concern to participants, but did not qualify as serious. Serious adverse events were defined per guidelines from the National Institutes of Aging.
