Eye and hand motor interactions with the Symbol Digit Modalities Test in early multiple sclerosis.
PURPOSE Eye and hand motor dysfunction may be present early in the disease course of relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS), and can affect the results on visual and written cognitive tests. We aimed to test for differences in saccadic initiation time (SI time) between RRMS patients and healthy controls, and whether SI time and hand motor speed interacted with the written version of the ...
متن کاملValidity of the Symbol Digit Modalities Test as a cognition performance outcome measure for multiple sclerosis
Cognitive and motor performance measures are commonly employed in multiple sclerosis (MS) research, particularly when the purpose is to determine the efficacy of treatment. The increasing focus of new therapies on slowing progression or reversing neurological disability makes the utilization of sensitive, reproducible, and valid measures essential. Processing speed is a basic elemental cognitiv...
متن کاملThe Symbol Digit Modalities Test is an effective cognitive screen in pediatric onset multiple sclerosis (MS).
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the Symbol Digit Modalities Test (SDMT) as a tool for identifying pediatric-onset MS patients at risk for cognitive impairment. BACKGROUND The SDMT is a brief measure of cognitive processing speed that is often used in adult MS patients. Approximately one-third of pediatric-onset MS patients have cognitive impairment and there is a need for an effective screening instrum...
متن کاملProcedural Variations in the Stroop and the Symbol Digit Modalities Test: impact on patients with multiple sclerosis.
Decreased information processing speed is often cited as the primary cognitive deficit occurring in conjunction with multiple sclerosis (MS). Two common tools for assessing this deficit are the Stroop Test and the Symbol Digit Modalities Test (SDMT). However, there are procedural variations in these rapid serial processing (RSP) tests pertaining to the response format (e.g., verbal or manual) a...
متن کاملThe Symbol Digit Modalities Test - Oral version: Italian normative data.
In neuropsychological practice, the availability of effective and reliable tests is crucial. The Symbol Digit Modalities Test (SDMT) is widely used because it is easy to administer, reliable and also evaluates information processing speed. We set out to obtain normative data (currently unavailable for the Italian population) for the oral version of this test. Both age and education influenced p...
