Twenty-one patients with symptoms of organic dementia were studied concerning the relationship between the behaviour when solving the Wechsler Block Design Test and the localization of cerebral dysfunction as indicated by the regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF). Eleven patients with decreases of rCBF in frontal regions (Group A) were compared with 10 patients with postcentral decreases (Group B). Conventional Block Design scores were about equal in the two groups. Group A patients showed significantly less anxiety and self-criticism, were less systematic and made fewer attempts at completion. Rotations were displayed more often in Group B. The results illustrate the significance of information obtained by behaviour observation in the test situation.
对21名有器质性痴呆症状的患者进行了研究，探讨其在解决韦氏积木图案测验时的行为与脑功能障碍定位（通过局部脑血流（rCBF）显示）之间的关系。将11名额叶rCBF降低的患者（A组）与10名中央后回rCBF降低的患者（B组）进行比较。两组的传统积木图案测验得分大致相当。A组患者表现出明显更少的焦虑和自我批评，系统性更差，完成尝试次数更少。B组中旋转动作出现得更频繁。结果说明了在测试情境中通过行为观察获得的信息的重要性。
