Reitan has argued that Halstead-Reitan Neuropsychological Battery measures are more sensitive to the effects of brain damage than are measures from the Wechsler intelligence scales. This proposal was investigated in groups of 65 brain-damaged subjects and 45 nonbrain-damaged controls equated for age and level of education and subgroups of 34 brain-damaged subjects and 34 nonbrain-damaged controls closely matched on age and WAIS-R full Scale IQ. Differences on Halstead-Reitan measures found in the larger groups were not found in the subgroups matched on age and IQ. Further, discriminant analyses showed that 11 Halstead-Reitan measures were equivalent to the 11 WAIS-R subtests in discriminating brain-damage and nonbrain-damaged subjects. Thus, the proposal for poorer sensitivity of the WAIS-R subtests was not supported.
瑞坦认为，哈雷特-瑞坦神经心理成套测验的各项测量指标对脑损伤影响的敏感度高于韦氏智力量表的测量指标。该观点在两组人群中进行了研究，一组是65名脑损伤受试者和45名年龄及教育程度与之匹配的非脑损伤对照者，另一组是34名脑损伤受试者和34名年龄及韦氏成人智力量表修订版（WAIS-R）全量表智商与之紧密匹配的非脑损伤对照者。在规模较大的那组人群中发现的哈雷特-瑞坦测验指标差异，在年龄和智商相匹配的子组中并未出现。此外，判别分析表明，在区分脑损伤和非脑损伤受试者方面，哈雷特-瑞坦测验的11项指标与WAIS-R的11个子测验效果相当。因此，WAIS-R子测验敏感度较低这一观点未得到支持。
