Abstract

The Reitan Society recognizes that adhering to the scientific method in conducting clinical neuropsychological evaluations is integral to neurodiagnostic accuracy. The role of science in clinical studies is discussed with specific reference to the scientific features of the Halstead-Reitan Test Battery (HRB). The diagnostic precision of the HRB across a wide range of neuropathological states is presented as a product of rigorous scientific interplay between empirical observation and the development of a conceptual model over more than five decades.

摘要

瑞坦协会认识到，在进行临床神经心理学评估时坚持科学方法对于神经诊断的准确性至关重要。文中结合哈尔斯特德－瑞坦成套测验（HRB）的科学特征，讨论了科学在临床研究中的作用。HRB在广泛的神经病理状态下的诊断精度，是经过五十多年实证观察与概念模型发展之间严格的科学相互作用而产生的。
