• Objective: To collect evidence of validity for a selection of digital tests on the Philips IntelliSpace Cognition (ISC) platform. Method: A total of 200 healthy participants (age 50-80) completed both the ISC battery and an analog version of the battery during separate visits. The battery included the following screeners and cognitive tests: Mini-Mental State Examination (2 nd edition), Clock Drawing Test, Trail-Making Test (TMT), Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test (RAVLT), Rey-Osterrieth Complex Figure Test (ROCFT), Letter Fluency, Star Cancellation Test, and Digit Span Test. The ISC tests were administered on an iPad Pro and were automatically scored using designated algorithms. The analog tests were administered in line with existing guidelines and scored by trained neuropsychologists. Criterion validity was established through relative agreement coefficients and raw score equivalence tests. In addition,measurement invariance analysis was used to compare the factor structures of both versions. Finally, we explored effects of demographics and experience with digital devices on performance. Results: We found fair to excellent relative agreement between test versions. Absolute equivalence was found for RAVLT, Letter Fluency, Star Cancellation Test, and Digit Span Test. Importantly, we demonstrated equal loadings of the digital and analog test versions on the same set of underlying cognitive domains. Demographic effects were mostly comparable between modalities, and people's experience with digital devices was found to only influence performance on TMT B. Conclusions: This study provides several sources of evidence for the validity of the ISC test battery, offering an important step in validating ISC for clinical use.
