简短智能测验（英文简称MMSE）是一份有30条问题的问卷，用作评估认知障碍。医学界常用此来检查失智症病人。此问卷也借着在不同时间点评估病人的认知障碍程度，从而得出治疗的成效。

测验时间约10分钟，测试有关于算术、记忆和方向的问题。由Folstein等人于1975年推出。简短智能测验的标准版本现由心理评估资源公司出版，是基于1975年推出时的概念，但经过原作者轻微的修改。

市面上有其他各种类似的测试，如Hodkinson的简短智能测验（1972年，用于老年医学）、医生认知评估以及其他较深入评估特别情况的测验。

The mini–mental state examination (MMSE) or Folstein test is a 30-point questionnaire that is used extensively in clinical and research settings to measure cognitive impairment. It is commonly used in medicine and allied health to screen for dementia. It is also used to estimate the severity and progression of cognitive impairment and to follow the course of cognitive changes in an individual over time; thus making it an effective way to document an individual's response to treatment. The MMSE's purpose has been not, on its own, to provide a diagnosis for any particular nosological entity.
