The verbal Selective Reminding Test (vSRT) is a frequently used test for evaluating verbal learning and memory. In the present study we investigated the construct validity of a Spanish version of the vSRT by determining its ability to distinguish between a group of healthy elderly subjects and a group of patients with dementia of the Alzheimer type (DAT). Further validation of the test was assessed by comparing the pattern of memory deficits found in the group of patients with DAT with findings from previous neuropsychological research concerning with memory impairments in English-speaking patients with Alzheimer's disease. Analyses revealed that the test was able to differentiate normal individuals from patients with DAT. In addition the pattern of memory functioning found in the group of patients with DAT was consistent with findings of previous experimental and clinical reports. These results support the construct validity of the Spanish version of the vSRT.
言语选择性提醒测验（vSRT）是一种常用于评估言语学习和记忆的测验。在本研究中，我们通过确定其区分一组健康老年受试者和一组阿尔茨海默病型痴呆（DAT）患者的能力，来研究西班牙语版vSRT的结构效度。通过将DAT患者组中发现的记忆缺陷模式与先前关于英语为母语的阿尔茨海默病患者记忆障碍的神经心理学研究结果进行比较，对该测验进行了进一步验证。分析表明，该测验能够区分正常个体和DAT患者。此外，DAT患者组中发现的记忆功能模式与先前实验和临床报告的结果一致。这些结果支持了西班牙语版vSRT的结构效度。
