Test-retest stability on the WRAT-3 reading subtest in geriatric cognitive evaluations.
The primary goal of this study was to establish the stability of the Wide Range Achievement Test (WRAT-3) Reading score across two annual assessments of aging individuals. Participants were classified as controls (n = 200), mild cognitive impairment (MCI; n = 137), or possible or probable Alzheimer's disease (AD; n = 41). Test-retest stability was acceptable to high for all diagnostic groups. T...
متن کاملValidation of a Dementia Screening Test in Geriatric Practice
Cognitive screening measures for age-related cognitive impairment have been found to have only fair validity, and the risks of harm even may outweigh the benefits at this time (U.S. Preventative Service Task Force, 2003). A large-scale project designed to assess elder care in Primary Care Physician offices noted that dementia evaluation and treatment was one of the most overlooked aspects of ca...
متن کاملTest-retest reliability and minimal detectable change for center of pressure measures of postural stability in elderly subjects
Abstract Background: Postural instability has been identified as a potential precursor of falls in elderly subjects. Postural stability in quiet stance is commonly assessed with center of pressure (COP) measures. The purpose of this study was to determine testretest reliability and minimal detectable change (MDC) for the center of pressure (COP) measures in the elderly subjects. Met...
متن کاملTest-Retest Reliability of Dynamic Postural Stability Measures in Healthy and Chronic Non-specific Low Back Pain Groups
Objective: The primary aim of the present study was to study the reliability of postural stability measures during whole body dynamic conditions, so they can be used in postural stability evaluations, investigations of injury mechanisms and assessments of treatment efficacy. Materials & Methods: Twelve healthy volunteers and 12 low back pain patients performed repeated trunk bending motions ...
متن کاملTest-retest stability of the Continuous Visual Memory Test in elderly persons.
Ninety-two normal elderly persons were administered the Continuous Visual Memory Test (CVMT) on two occasions an average of 1.1 years apart. Means for age and education were 69.02 years (SD = 5.79) and 14.80 years (SD = 2.64), respectively. Stability coefficients were.49 on the Total score,.44 on d-prime, and.48 on Delayed Recognition. D-Prime and Delayed Recognition scores demonstrated signifi...
