Multivariate models provide an effective psychometric solution to the variability in classification accuracy of D-KEFS Stroop performance validity cutoffs.

The study was designed to expand on the results of previous investigations on the D-KEFS Stroop as a performance validity test (PVT), which produced diverging conclusions. The classification accuracy of previously proposed validity cutoffs on the D-KEFS Stroop was computed against four different criterion PVTs in two independent samples: patients with uncomplicated mild TBI ( = 68) and disability benefit applicants ( = 49). Age-corrected scaled scores (ACSSs) ≤6 on individual subtests often fell short of specificity standards.

Flipping the Script: Measuring Both Performance Validity and Cognitive Ability with the Forced Choice Recognition Trial of the RCFT.

In this study we attempted to replicate the classification accuracy of the newly introduced Forced Choice Recognition trial (FCR) of the Rey Complex Figure Test (RCFT) in a clinical sample. We administered the RCFT and the earlier Yes/No Recognition trial from the RCFT to 52 clinically referred patients as part of a comprehensive neuropsychological test battery and incentivized a separate control group of 83 university students to perform well on these measures. We then computed the classification accuracies of both measures against criterion performance validity tests (PVTs) and compared results between the two samples.

The V-5 provides quick, accurate and cross-culturally valid measures of psychiatric symptoms.

This study was designed to cross-validate the V-5, a quick psychiatric screener, across administration formats and levels of examinee acculturation. The V-5 was administered twice (once at the beginning and once at the end of the testing session) to three samples (N = 277) with varying levels of symptom severity and English language proficiency, varying type of administration, alongside traditional self-reported symptom inventories as criterion measures. The highest rest-retest reliability was observed on the Depression (.

Introducing a forced choice recognition trial to the Hopkins Verbal Learning Test - Revised.

Objective: This study was designed to replicate previous research on embedded validity indicators (EVIs) in the Hopkins Verbal Learning Test - Revised (HVLT-R) and introduce a new forced choice recognition trial (FCR).

Method: Undergraduate research volunteers were randomly assigned ( = 21.7; = 14.
