Abstract

The Milan Automated Neurobehavioral System (MANS) has been used in field studies to measure effects of toxicants on the central nervous system. The battery has not been deemed appropriate in clinical settings because of the paucity of available norms. In this study, 236 (151 men, 85 women) healthy 39- to 94-year-olds were given the MANS as part of a comprehensive neurobehavioral evaluation. The subtests were simple visual reaction time, digit symbol substitution, serial digit learning, and Benton visual retention. Age and years of education accounted for a significant proportion of the variance in all four subtests. In two of the subtests (simple visual reaction time and Benton visual retention) sex also accounted for a significant proportion of the variance. Age-, sex-, and years of education-specific normative values are presented for healthy persons aged 50 to 79 years.

摘要

米兰自动神经行为系统（MANS）已用于现场研究，以测量有毒物质对中枢神经系统的影响。由于可用常模匮乏，该测试组合在临床环境中被认为不合适。在本研究中，236名（151名男性，85名女性）年龄在39至94岁的健康人接受了MANS测试，作为全面神经行为评估的一部分。子测试包括简单视觉反应时间、数字符号替换、系列数字学习和本顿视觉保持。年龄和受教育年限在所有四个子测试中占方差的很大比例。在其中两个子测试（简单视觉反应时间和本顿视觉保持）中，性别也占方差的很大比例。给出了50至79岁健康人群的年龄、性别和受教育年限特定的常模值。
