The efficacy of the picture version of the free and cued selective reminding test to detect significant neurocognitive deficits in a Chilean population.

Unlabelled: The picture version of the Free and cued selective reminding test with immediate recall is a test adept at measuring the memory encoding and the effect of semantic cues. Furthermore, it is sensitive to detect early dementia stages. This study aimed to obtain psychometric properties of visual Buschke and Grober The Free and Cued Selective Reminding Test (FCSRT) in healthy older adults, mild neurocognitive disorders, and major neurocognitive subjects on a Chilean population.

Influence of Teacher-Student Relationships and Special Educational Needs on Student Engagement and Disengagement: A Correlational study.

Contemporary educational research has found that student engagement and disengagement have a relevant influence on learning outcomes. However, research on the influence of teacher-student relationships in the engagement of students with special educational needs (SEN) is scarce. The purpose of this study is to analyze the impact of teacher-student relationships, peer support at school, family support for learning, opportunities to participate at school, and SEN on engagement and disengagement of students using a sample of secondary students with SEN and typical development (TD).

Montreal Cognitive Assessment as Screening Measure for Mild and Major Neurocognitive Disorder in a Chilean Population.

Background: The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) is a sensitive screening instrument for mild neurocognitive disorder (mild NCD). However, cut-off scores and accuracy indices should be established using representative samples of the population. In this context, the aim of this study was to update the normative values, and diagnostic efficiency statistics of the MoCA to detect mild NCD in the Chilean population.

Moderator Role of Monitoring in the Inhibitory Control of Adolescents With ADHD.

The aim of this research was to analyze the role of monitoring in the causal relationship between inhibitory control and symptoms of combined ADHD. It has been conducted a quantitative investigation of two phases. In the first study, a moderation model was analyzed ( = 144 adolescents with combined ADHD), where monitoring was considered as a moderating variable in the causal relationship between the inhibitory control and the symptomatology of ADHD (3, 140) = 28.

Bifactor Modeling of the Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function (BRIEF) in a Chilean Sample.

The Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Functions evaluates executive functioning through the observation of students' performance in real contexts. Most psychometric studies of the scale have only tested the first-order structure, despite the hierarchical configuration of its theoretical model. A bifactor model was conducted on a normative sample of 5- to 18-year-old Chileans (M age = 11.
