The Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status (RBANS; Randolph, 1998) is a screening battery designed to measure attention and processing speed, expressive language,. 0000038181 00000 n Texas Mexican American adult normative studies: Normative data for the Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status (RBANS). Anda L, Brnnick KS, Johnsen E, Kroken RA, Jrgensen H, Lberg EM. The current study sought to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the RBANS in detecting milder cognitive deficits, such as those associated with amnestic MCI. Email:Pas.licensing@pearson.com, Digital Assessment Library for Schools (K-12), Digital Assessment Library for Universities. Since amnestic MCI is suspected to be the prodrome of AD, it was expected that the RBANS would again separate individuals with MCI from intact peers, at least on the memory Indexes of the RBANS. 0 0 A " " # , # # 0 . 55 0 obj<>stream . All scores analysed shared over 5% of the variance with age, indicating the need for a different norm for each age group. down the shift key when clicking. Patients with more than 12 years of education performed significantly better on every index score than patients with 12 or fewer years of education.

However, the sensitivity of the RBANS was very different between these two studies (Delayed Memory Index at 1.0 SD: Duff et al. endobj To provide information necessary for advancing clinical trials in MCI, sensitivity, specificity, odds ratios, and ROC data were calculated using various cutoff points (1, 1.5, and 2 SD below the mean) for RBANS scores. The areas under a curve (AUC) of an ROC represent the probability that normal and abnormal test scores will be correctly classified as the disease state (Hanley & McNeil, 1982). Four parallel forms: Form A offers a single set of norms based on age, gender, race, education, and geographic region, with equating studies and adjustments for Forms B-D and Spanish Form A. Subtest scores now available in addition to index scores. Within this same article (p. 305), the authors present means and standard deviations for their MCI subjects on several memory measures. If any of these demographic, depression, or premorbid intellect variables were significantly different between the groups, then they would be used as covariates in the following analyses. All data were reviewed by two neuropsychologists (KD and LJB), and all participants were classified as intact or MCI. {K>{ Nfi\(0;B6!M^ vQ6cJxL_;MbD}cSb+x9T1E8Y4Njlmq)i1b!ro}PYt)d.WUI JJ@6e Y`iJ0a*`. The RBANS, which was initially developed as an assessment tool for dementia, has been validated in community-dwelling normal elderly samples (Duff et al., 2003, 2004, 2005; Patton et al., 2003) and in a number of studies of dementia and MCI (Juhasz, Kemeny, Linka, Santha, & Bartko, 2003; Kotani et al., 2006). (2004). In a related vein, the RBANS Indexes with the two best sensitivity values at the 1.0 SD cutoff in the current study were the Delayed Memory Index and the Language Index. is provided 'as is' without express or implied warranties, including warranties This computer program for PCs accompanies the paper: Crawford, J.

These are the scores used in the Excel macro, which should be used for generating normed scores for individual participants/patients. Participants were 174 inpatients from a provincial psychiatric hospital with a diagnosis of schizophrenia spectrum disorder. 1. However, its ability to detect milder cognitive deficits in the elderly has not been examined. Cognitive profiles and heritability estimates in the Old Order Amish. The second, "average" group ( n = 368), scored from 90 to 109, and the "above average" group ( n = 182) scored 110 or greater. Smaller, but still statistically significant, differences were observed in the current study (e.g., 9.0 standard score points on the Delayed Memory Index). 10 0 obj 53 46 Although an ideal diagnostic test would have an optimal balance of sensitivity and specificity, the current study did not find that balance in the RBANS. Diagnostic accuracy was estimated using ROC curves and the calculation of AUC via non-parametric analyses using SPSS 15.0. Although there are similarities between Duff and colleagues and the current study, differences also exist. $15.60. 0000039136 00000 n 0000001947 00000 n Other authors have also viewed the MCI criteria as flexible (e.g., Bennett et al., 2002, p. 199: judged to have cognitive impairment by a neuropsychologist but did not meet accepted criteria for dementiaadditionally, presented Logical Memory II data for their MCI group fell at a MOANS scaled score of 7; Busse et al., 2003, p. 73: more than one SD below age- and education-specific norms; Farias et al., 2009, p. 1152: fell approximately 1.5 SDs below age-corrected norms; Fleischer et al., 2007, p. 2: cutoff score approximately 1.5 to 2 SDs below the education adjusted norms; Griffith et al., 2006, p. 168: objective memory impairment falling approximately 1.5 standard deviations or more below; Luis et al., 2004, p. 308: cognitive impairment but of insufficient magnitude to negatively affect daily functioning).

Consistent with recent views of MCI (Petersen et al., 2009), these participants were classified as having either single- or multidomain MCI, and the following subtypes were identified: Single domain amnestic (n = 49), single domain executive functioning (n = 15), single domain language (n = 6), single domain attention/processing speed (n = 2), multidomain amnestic and executive functioning (n = 9), multidomain amnestic and language (n = 4), multidomain amnestic, executive functioning, and language (n = 2), multidomain amnestic, executive functioning, and attention (n = 6), multidomain amnestic, executive functioning, language, and attention (n = 2), and multidomain executive functioning and language (n = 2).
