Reports on cognitive test deficits in patients with obsessive-compulsive disorders and interpretations of the underlying dysfunction have been conflicting. In the present study, 15 obsessive-compulsive patients were compared with 15 matched normal controls on three types of test sensitive to: spatial ability, ability to shift cognitive set, and combinations of both. Performance deficits as compared with controls were shown in Block Design, the Short Wisconsin Card Sort, the Word Fluency Test, and on the Money Road Map Test. No deficits were present on a number of other measures. The pattern of results is interpreted partly as revealing deficits in ability to shift cognitive set, more particularly with nonverbal material.
关于强迫症患者认知测试缺陷的报告以及对潜在功能障碍的解释一直存在分歧。在本研究中,将15名强迫症患者与15名匹配的正常对照在三类对以下方面敏感的测试上进行了比较:空间能力、认知定势转换能力以及两者的结合。与对照组相比,在积木设计、简短威斯康星卡片分类测验、词语流畅性测验以及金钱路线图测验中表现出缺陷。在其他一些测量中未发现缺陷。结果模式部分被解释为揭示了认知定势转换能力的缺陷,尤其是在处理非语言材料方面。
