Young, active, licensed professional boxers (N = 19) were found to display a pattern of neuropsychological deficits consistent with the more severe punch-drunk syndrome of years past. These deficits resulted in significantly lower test performance than that of control athletes (N = 10) matched for race, age, and level of education. Tests that showed significant differences between groups include subtests of the Quick Neurological Screening Test, subtests of the Halstead-Reitan Neuropsychological Test Battery, and the Randt Memory Test. Fifteen of the 19 boxers scored in the impaired range of the Reitan Impairment Index, as compared to 2 of the 10 controls.
研究发现，年轻、活跃且持有执照的职业拳击手（N = 19）表现出一系列神经心理学缺陷，这些缺陷与过去更为严重的拳击醉态综合征相符。与按种族、年龄和教育水平匹配的对照运动员（N = 10）相比，这些缺陷导致测试表现显著更低。显示出组间显著差异的测试包括快速神经学筛查测试的子测试、霍尔斯特德 - 雷坦神经心理测试组套的子测试以及兰特记忆测试。19名拳击手中有15名在雷坦损伤指数的受损范围内得分，相比之下，10名对照运动员中有2名。
