Besides being used as a screening test, the Clock Drawing Test (CDT) has also been used to assess executive functioning in the elderly. In previous study, a scoring method that classified the Construction Strategies of the CDT was constructed and validated. This tesis aims to investigate construction strategies of CDT in elderly with cognitive impairment. 86 elderly (28 controls, 45 with mild neurocognitive disorder and 13 with major neurocognitive disorder) were the participants of the thesis. It was subdivided in two studies. The first one analyzed older adult s Construction Strategies of the CDT and neuropsychological profiles. The second one verified clinical validity of the system. Results showed that the subcategories associated with better executive functioning decrease occurrence as cognitive impairment increases while the subcategories associated with worse executive functioning increase frequency. Atypical General Sequence Strategy also showed clinical validity to differentiate older adults with major neurocognitive disorder from other groups. As conclusion, it is verified that qualitative analysis of the Construction Strategies of the CDT has clinical utility as a measure of executive functioning.
