Sumario:The objective of this work was to verify whether the alterations in primary mental abilities in older adults with mild TNC, due to Alzheimer's disease, are increased when the patient experiences, simultaneously, depressive symptoms. A total of 785 older adults with mild TNC, due to Alzheimer's disease, participated in this research and were divided into two groups. The participants were evaluated through the application of the Beck Depression Inventory II (BDI-II), and the Thurstone Test of Primary Mental Abilities (HMP). Since statistically significant effects were found between depression and all the mechanisms associated with primary mental abilities. Considering the results obtained, it can be verified that the primary mental abilities are affected when the patient, simultaneously, presents depressive symptoms, being that the alterations depend directly on the level of the depressive state that the patient suffers.
