The Word Accentuation Test assesses the accentuation of 30 infrequent Spanish words written without the accentuation mark and is an easy-to-use tool for estimating premorbid intelligence of Spanish-speaking people. Its intraobserver (0.97) and interobserver (0.93) reliabilities and its correlation with the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (.837) and Raven's Progressive Matrices (.655) are high, offering a good prediction of general intelligence. It is resistant to mental deterioration; 20 demented and 40 controls matched by sex, age, and education obtained similar scores. The discrepancies between current and predicted scores in Raven's scale can diagnose mild-moderate dementia with 0.79 accuracy (sensitivity, 0.78; specificity, 0.82).
单词重音测试评估30个未带重音符号书写的不常见西班牙语单词的重音情况，是一种用于评估说西班牙语人群病前智力的易于使用的工具。其观察者内信度（0.97）和观察者间信度（0.93）以及与韦氏成人智力量表（.837）和瑞文渐进性矩阵测验（.655）的相关性都很高，能很好地预测一般智力。它对智力衰退具有抵抗力；20名患有痴呆症的患者和40名在性别、年龄和教育程度上匹配的对照组获得了相似的分数。瑞文量表中当前分数与预测分数之间的差异能够以0.79的准确率（敏感性为0.78；特异性为0.82）诊断轻度至中度痴呆症。
