The SKT is a brief neuropsychological test battery that includes nine performance subtests that define two independent factors of memory and attention deficit. It requires no more than 15 minutes to administer and has five parallel forms. Developed in Germany, it has been used successfully to document improved performance of patients in trials of antidementia drugs in that country. This article addresses factor structure and scoring, dementia profile classification, reliability, and validity data. The SKT appears to hold promise for efficient assessment of objective performance changes to supplement clinical evaluations of therapeutic efficacy of new drugs for treatment of senile dementia.
SKT是一个简短的神经心理测试组合，包括九个操作分测验，这些分测验定义了记忆和注意力缺陷的两个独立因素。实施该测试所需时间不超过15分钟，并有五种平行版本。它在德国开发，已成功用于记录该国抗痴呆药物试验中患者的改善情况。本文探讨了因素结构与评分、痴呆症特征分类、信度和效度数据。SKT似乎有望有效评估客观的表现变化，以补充对治疗老年痴呆症新药治疗效果的临床评估。
