The original MMSE (created in 1975!) can be vulnerable to poor inter-rater reliability. The **Standardized MMSE (SMMSE)** was developed in 1997 to provide exact scoring instructions with clear and unambiguous guidelines to administer the test, in order to increase reliability and reduce variability.[([[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9447431|Molloy, D. William, and Timothy IM Standish. "A guide to the standardized Mini-Mental State Examination."
