Fourteen women with PMS and ten without PMS were evaluated with a battery of neuropsychological tests during the follicular and late luteal phases of two consecutive menstrual cycles. Classification was determined with NIMH diagnostic criteria and prospective record keeping. The results indicated that (1) the PMS women had significant difficulty in learning new material and this problem was not phase-dependent, (2) both groups performed better on a test of frontal lobe function during the follicular phase, and (3) mood did not account for any of the differences in cognitive functioning.
在两个连续月经周期的卵泡期和黄体后期，对14名经前综合征女性和10名无经前综合征女性进行了一系列神经心理学测试评估。分类依据美国国立精神卫生研究所的诊断标准并进行前瞻性记录。结果表明：（1）经前综合征女性在学习新材料方面存在显著困难，且此问题不依赖于月经周期阶段；（2）两组在卵泡期的额叶功能测试中表现更佳；（3）情绪不能解释认知功能方面的任何差异。
