Note on Comparability of Microcog Test Forms

Note on comparability of MicroCog test forms.

This study investigated the differences between the Standard and Short forms of MicroCog by comparing Domain scores for a clinical sample of 351 substance abusers which gave a significant difference between scores on the Spatial Processing Domain. Implications for research and clinical use are discussed.

A note on quadratic forms

We extend an interesting theorem of Yuan [12] for two quadratic forms to three matrices. Let C1, C2, C3 be three symmetric matrices in <n×n , if max{xT C1x, xT C2x, xT C3x} ≥ 0 for all x ∈ <n , it is proved that there exist ti ≥ 0 (i = 1, 2, 3) such that ∑3 i=1 ti = 1 and ∑3 i=1 ti Ci has at most one negative eigenvalue.

A Note on Hermitian Forms

In this note we effect a reduction of the theory of hermitian forms of two particular types (coefficients in a quadratic field or in a quaternion algebra with the usual anti-automorphism) to that of quadratic forms. The main theorem (§2) enables us to apply directly the known results on quadratic forms. This is illustrated in the discussion in §3 of a number of special cases. Let <£ be an arbit...
