A-27The Impact of Reduced Retrieval Demands on Verbal Memory in Parkinson's Disease Patients at Various Levels of Global Cognitive Functioning Archives of Clinical Neuropsychology. Identifying clinical subtypes of MCI has further challenged diagnostic approaches because varying the components of the objective cognitive assessment can significantly impact diagnosis. The present study evaluated the 1-month test-retest reliability and practice effects associated with the standard and alternate forms of the CVLT-II in a sample of 195 healthy adults.

The California Verbal Learning Test--second edition: test-retest reliability, practice effects, and reliable change indices for the standard and alternate forms. An examination of the nature of attentional deficits in patients with Parkinson's disease: evidence from a spatial orienting task. She attended Smith, graduated in English from Pomona, spent time in UCLA's MFA scriptwriting program, and earned a master's in journalism at U. She's written for newspapers in Northern California, scouted scripts in the film business, and assessed submissions at a literary agency.The type and frequency of intrusions can help distinguish between types of neuropathological dysfunction mediated by different parts of the brain, such as the medial-temporal or subcortical-frontal structures (Graves et al.

Hernandez-Mejia M, Prendiville B, Fong C, Burke M, Nguyen L, Schiehser D, Turk E, Delis D, Filoteo J. This study investigated performance on the Delis-Kaplan Executive Function System (D-KEFS) Tower Test in a sample of 12 patients with focal lesions in the lateral prefrontal cortex (PFC) and 12 control participants.Modification of the Stroop color word test improves differentiation between patients with mild head injury and matched controls. Decline in verbal memory during preclinical Alzheimer's disease: examination of the effect of APOE genotype. Delis, PhD, ABPP, is Professor Emeritus of Psychiatry at the University of California, San Diego, School of Medicine.

Numerous studies have suggested that frontal cortex plays a strategic, rather than an absolute, role in memory performance. Holden HM, Tierney SM, Graves LV, Beltran-Najera I, Woods SP, Snell CM, Delis DC, Corey-Bloom J, Gilbert PE. Previous studies conducted by our group have provided evidence for age-related reductions in cortical thickness in dorsal frontal and parietal regions between childhood and adulthood, and gray matter volume increases of mesial temporal and anterior diencephalic structures. National Adult Reading Test (NART) [58] and Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology (16-item) (Self-Report) (QIDS-SR 16) [59].

Of importance, each task allowed for independent measurement of component skills that are embedded in the higher level. Posterior cingulum white matter disruption and its associations with verbal memory and stroke risk in mild cognitive impairment. Integrating clinical assessment with cognitive neuroscience: construct validation of the California Verbal Learning Test. There were 89 participants: 19 patients with probable Alzheimer's disease, 25 patients with frontotemporal dementia, 13 patients with semantic dementia, 12 patients. Operational definitions of cognitive impairment have varied widely in diagnosing mild cognitive impairment (MCI).
