Does anyone use FAQ from ADNI? I did not know why the maximized item score in this scaler is 5. It should be 3. Is the FAQ score od each domain wrong or applies some processing transformation?

If you refer to the data dictionary, you will see the coding for numbers 1-5 (as well as how they map to the 0-3 scores).

how to refer the data dictionary? If type ?faq in r, the result still did not show detail about what score 4 or 5 mean in each FAQ item. Based on my understanding, the range for each FAQ item should be from 0 to 3. 0 = Normal 1 = Has difficulty, but does by self 2 = Requires assistance 3 = Dependent. But what is 4 or 5.

Is there a way to see how the r package get faq table from original CVS. Since I have FAQ.cvs downloaded from LONI, it have maximal score = 5, but the FAQ table in R is normal, all scores are from 0 to 3.

You can download the data dictionary from the LONI website on the Study Data page, in the Study Info section.

I believe when you download the R package, you also get access to a variety of R programs that generate the tables, so you can refer to those specific files to see what is done.
