Corsi's block-tapping task was given to 30 normal subjects and 38 Alzheimer-type demented patients following two different procedures. The first is the most widely standardized (scoring criterion: 3 correct reproductions out of 5 sequences), while the second is more lenient since it does not require subjects to replicate a certain performance three times. Demented patients' scores were lower than those of controls in both conditions, and scores on the two tasks were significantly correlated for patients and controls. However, the requirement of replicating the visuospatial memory performances was more detrimental for demented patients than for controls so the two procedures cannot be considered equivalent.
按照两种不同程序，对30名正常受试者和38名阿尔茨海默型痴呆患者进行了科尔西敲击任务测试。第一种是应用最广泛的标准化程序（评分标准：5个序列中有3个正确再现），而第二种则更为宽松，因为它不要求受试者将特定表现重复三次。在两种情况下，痴呆患者的得分均低于对照组，并且患者和对照组在两项任务上的得分显著相关。然而，重复视觉空间记忆表现的要求对痴呆患者比对对照组更不利，因此这两种程序不能被视为等效。
