Four theoretical factor models for a modified Halstead-Reitan battery were formulated, drawing from previous work by Swiercinsky, Royce and co-workers, Christensen and Luria, and Lezak. The relative explanatory power of these four models for this particular battery in an adult neuropsychiatric population was examined using confirmatory factor analysis. None of the models was shown to fit adequately in an absolute sense, but three of them represented substantial, statistically reliable improvements over a null model of mutual independence, and a clear pattern of relative fit was observed. Further improvements were achieved by modifying the best fitting initial model in several ways. A cross-validation with an independent sample supported the results of the model development step. Tentative theoretical and clinical implications for the overall organization of the neuropsychological abilities measured by this battery were drawn, and recommendations were made for further application of this method in neuropsychological research.
基于斯维尔钦斯基、罗伊斯及其同事、克里斯滕森和卢里亚以及莱扎克之前的研究成果，制定了四种适用于改良版哈尔斯泰德 - 雷坦成套测验的理论因素模型。使用验证性因素分析检验了这四种模型对成年神经精神疾病患者群体中该特定成套测验的相对解释力。从绝对意义上讲，没有一个模型显示出充分的拟合度，但其中三个模型相对于相互独立的虚无模型有显著的、统计上可靠的改进，并且观察到了明显的相对拟合模式。通过对最佳拟合初始模型进行几种方式的修改，实现了进一步的改进。使用独立样本进行的交叉验证支持了模型开发步骤的结果。得出了关于该成套测验所测量的神经心理能力整体组织的初步理论和临床意义，并就该方法在神经心理学研究中的进一步应用提出了建议。
