The present study sought to establish normative and discriminant validity data for Rey's Auditory Verbal Learning Test [Rey, A. (1964). L 'examen clinique en psychologie [Clinical tests in psychology]. Paris: Presses Universitaires de France; Schmidt, M. (1996). Rey auditory verbal learning test: A handbook. Los Angeles, CA: Western Psychological Services] using newly adapted learning lists for the Greek adult population. Applying the procedure suggested by Geffen et al. [Geffen, G., Moar, K. J., O'Hanlon, A. P., Clark, C. R., & Geffen, L. N. (1990). Performance measures of 16-86-year-old males and females on the auditory verbal learning test. The Clinical Neuropsychologist, 4, 45-63] we administered the test to 205 healthy participants, aged 18-78 years and two adult patient groups (long-term cannabis users and HIV symptomatic patients). Stepwise linear regression analyses showed that the variables age, education and gender contributed significantly to most trials of the RAVLT. Performance decreased in an age-dependent manner from young adulthood. Women, young adults and higher educated participants outperformed men, older adults and less educated individuals. The test appears to discriminate adequately between the performance of long-term heavy cannabis users and HIV seropositive symptomatic patients and matched healthy controls, as both patient groups performed more poorly than their respective control group. Normative data stratified by age, gender and education for the Greek adult population is presented for use in research and clinical settings.
本研究旨在使用针对希腊成年人群新改编的学习列表,为雷伊听觉词语学习测验[雷伊,A.(1964年)。《心理学临床测试》。巴黎:法国大学出版社;施密特,M.(1996年)。《雷伊听觉词语学习测验:手册》。加利福尼亚州洛杉矶:西方心理服务公司]建立常模效度和区分效度数据。采用格芬等人建议的程序[格芬,G.,莫尔,K.J.,奥汉隆,A.P.,克拉克,C.R.,&格芬,L.N.(1990年)。16至86岁男性和女性在听觉词语学习测验上的表现指标。《临床神经心理学家》,4,45 - 63],我们对205名年龄在18至78岁的健康参与者以及两个成年患者组(长期大麻使用者和有HIV症状的患者)进行了该测验。逐步线性回归分析表明,年龄、教育程度和性别变量对雷伊听觉词语学习测验的大多数试验有显著贡献。从青年期开始,表现呈年龄依赖性下降。女性、年轻人和受教育程度较高的参与者比男性、老年人和受教育程度较低的个体表现更好。该测验似乎能够充分区分长期大量使用大麻的使用者和HIV血清阳性有症状患者与匹配的健康对照组的表现,因为两个患者组的表现均比各自的对照组差。本文呈现了按年龄、性别和教育程度分层的希腊成年人群的常模数据,以供研究和临床环境使用。
