Clinical utility of Wechsler Memory Scale-Revised and predicted IQ discrepancies in closed head injury.
Comparisons between Wechsler Memory Scale-Revised (WMS-R) indexes and Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Revised (WAIS-R) IQ scores have been proposed to identify severity of memory deficits. However, many neurologic conditions reduce both intellectual and memory functioning, and thus, examining differences between these scores may be of little value. Closed head injured subjects who completed t...
متن کاملWechsler Memory Scale performance and its relationship to brain damage after severe closed head injury.
Eighty-two patients with severe head injury were tested on the Wechsler Memory Scale and compared with 34 normal subjects. Head injured patients had severe memory difficulties, particularly on Logical Memory and Associate Learning. Severity of head injury (post-traumatic amnesia duration) was related to poor memory, as was increasing age, but both persisting neurological signs, including dyspha...
متن کاملThe neurobehavioural rating scale-revised: sensitivity and validity in closed head injury assessment.
OBJECTIVES To investigate the factor structure and psychometric properties of the neurobehavioural rating scale-revised (NRS-R) and to determine its usefulness in clinical trials. METHODS A consecutive series of patients sustaining severe closed head injury were evacuated to one of 11 large regional North American trauma centres and entered into a randomised, phase III, multicentre clinical t...
متن کاملQuantitative measures of memory malingering on the Wechsler Memory Scale--Third edition in mild head injury litigants.
Wechsler Memory Scale-Third edition (WMS-III) performance in 25 mild traumatic brain injury (TBI) litigants who met the criteria for probable malingered neurocognitive dysfunction (MND) was compared with 50 nonmalingering subjects. The base rate for probable MND in the population studied was 27%. Overall, malingerers showed globally depressed memory function. They returned significantly poorer ...
