Intervention model description: Interventional, prospective, Study case-control
Primary purpose: OTHER

Brief summary: In this study the participants can be recruited via scheduled consultation and external institutions (associations, senior club..). Neuropsychological assessment will be realize to determine presence or absence of neurodegenerative disease.

Study test is ecological MAI. This test are assigned in two groups (with or without neurocognitive disorders).

Detailed description: In this study the participants can be recruited via scheduled consultation and external institutions (associations, senior club..). Neuropsychological assessment will be realize to determine presence or absence of neurodegenerative disease.

Study test is ecological MAI. Participation will be 30 minutes for patients see in case of routine care and 2h30 for those accompanying the patients and participants recruited in external institutions.

Participants are assigned in two groups. Group 1 : with neurocognitive disorders Group 2 : without neurocognitive disorders

Benefits :

For participants without neurodegenerative disorder, study enables to take control early if anomaly will be detected.

The study permit to have cognitive assessment.

Risk : It's possible that participants feel tired. No constraints for participants seen during scheduled consultation.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* Male or female ≥ 70 ans
* Person have good locomotion, move independently
* Personne agree to participate

Groupe 1 : 17≤MMSE≤24 (GRECO) Diagnosis of neurodegenerative diseases (major neurocognitive disorders: Alzheimer, mixed dementia, lobar frontotemporal degeneration, vascular dementia).

Groupe 2 : MMSE ≥ à 25 (GRECO) Without neurodegenerative disease

Exclusion Criteria:

* Person with legal protective measures
* Person deprived of liberty
* Mental retardation or MMSE≤ 16
* Understanding verbal disorders
* Visual major disturbances
* Person with disease causing increased fatigue
* Person with psychiatric pathology excepted anxiety disorder or depression with mild episodes.
* Person not covered by French national health insurance

Primary outcomes:
measure: To compare performance obtaining to overall score remind ecological MAI between older persons with neurocognitive disorders (groupe 1) and older persons without neurocognitive disorders (groupe 2).
timeFrame: day 1
Secondary outcomes:
measure: To compare between case and control the various dimensions of episodic memory: temporal component, space component and association component.
