Estimates of premorbid intellect are often used in neuropsychological assessment to make inferences about cognitive decline. To optimize the method of controlling for premorbid intellect in assessments of prodromal neurodegenerative disease, we examined performance on the American National Adult Reading Test (ANART; administered during Years 1 and 3) and the two-subtest version of the Wechsler Abbreviated Scale of Intelligence (WASI; administered in Years 2 and 4) in an ongoing prospective longitudinal study of 371 participants with prodromal Huntington disease and 51 participants with normal CAG repeats. Although both measures performed similarly, the ANART demonstrated slightly lower variability in performance over a 2-year period and had slightly higher test-retest reliability than the WASI.
在神经心理学评估中,常使用预患病智商的估计值来推断认知能力下降。为了优化在进行前驱神经退行性疾病评估时控制预患病智商的方法,我们研究了 371 名前驱亨廷顿病患者和 51 名正常 CAG 重复患者在一项正在进行的前瞻性纵向研究中在第 1 年和第 3 年接受的美国全国成人阅读测验(ANART;施测)和第 2 年和第 4 年接受的韦氏简明智力量表(WASI;施测)的两个子测验版本上的表现。虽然这两种方法的表现相似,但在 2 年期间,ANART 的表现变异性略低,并且比 WASI 具有略高的测试-重测信度。
