Let's lower the floor: Clinical utility of the D-KEFS TMT with a forensic psychiatric inpatient population.

Trail-making tests are widely used as part of neuropsychological assessments, although the prevalence of processing speed deficits in schizophrenia spectrum disorders may limit their utility when administered to this population. In response, our study sought to explore D-KEFS TMT performance among a forensic-oriented schizophrenia spectrum sample, with the goal of generating normative data to enhance the utility of the TMT with this population. Archival data was collected from a sample of patients admitted to a forensic maximum-security psychiatric facility.
