Repeatable battery for the assessment of neuropsychological status as a screening test in schizophrenia I: sensitivity, reliability, and validity. 0000023940 00000 n Diagnostic utility information of RBANS Indexes and subtests. down the shift key when clicking. One such brief battery that is receiving increased attention in both clinical and research settings is the Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status (RBANS; Randolph, 1998). Median performance on the RBANS was 1-2 standard deviations (SDs) below the mean. Index scores have a mean of 100 and standard deviation of 15, and subtest scores have a mean of 10 and standard deviation of 3. For bilateral hippocampal volume, significant correlations were observed for 4 of the 5 Indexes, Total Scale score, and 9 of 12 subtests, with smaller hippocampi being related to lower RBANS . 0000019295 00000 n For example, as the cutoff on the Total Scale score shifts from 1.0 to 2.0 SD, sensitivity decreases (0.549 to 0.099) and specificity increases (0.800 to 0.968). The other identified cognitive differences in the MCI sample were on measures of semantic fluency and processing speed, and both of these types of tasks have been reported to fall below expectations in cases of MCI (Cooper, Lacritz, Weiner, Rosenberg, & Cullum, 2004; Economou, Papageorgiou, Karageorgiou, & Vassilopoulos, 2007).

(2010) found considerably lower scores on the Delayed Memory Index than in the current sample (77.0 vs. 92.8, respectively). %PDF-1.4 % All data were reviewed by two neuropsychologists (KD and LJB), and all participants were classified as intact or MCI. Independent t-tests and 2 analyses were calculated to compare the two groups (intact and MCI) on age, education, gender, GDS, and WRAT-3 Reading scores. 0000001947 00000 n Oxford University Press is a department of the University of Oxford.

The project described was supported a research grant (R03 AG025850-01; K23 AG028417-01A2) from the National Institute on Aging. School of Psychology, University of Aberdeen. Additionally, the AUC from the ROC analyses suggested adequate separation between the two groups in the current study on measures of learning and memory. In clinical practice, it may be more feasible to tailor diagnostic decisions to the individual with some flexibility (e.g., weighting multiple sources of information and test data), whereas research requires more standardized cutoff scores that might somewhat arbitrarily separate a true continuum (e.g., cognitive functioning). Supplemental and original scoring templates for the CVLT-II, COWAT, and RBANS, as well as Premorbid IQ estimates and more. Although several studies have used the RBANS as a tool to examine cognitive dysfunction, there remains little information regarding the diagnostic accuracy of the RBANS and its ability to detect milder deficits in cognition in the elderly. It can serve as a neuropsychological screen battery when lengthier standardization assessments are either impractical or inappropriate.

Finally, the current sample was exclusively Caucasian and well-educated, so the generalizability of these findings to a more diverse sample is uncertain. For example, 1 SD below the mean can represent the lower end of normal (16th percentile); 1.5 SD below the mean has been frequently cited in the literature identifying impairment in MCI (Petersen et al., 2001); and 2 SD below the mean more clearly falls into the impaired range (2nd percentile). Use as a stand-alone core battery for the detection and characterization of dementia in the elderly, Use as a neuropsychological screen battery when lengthier standardization assessments are either impractical or inappropriate. &.

According to the Standards for Reporting of Diagnostic Accuracy (STARD) work group (Bossuyt et al., 2003), the amount of agreement between the results from the Index test and those from the reference standard indicates the accuracy of that test. 0000005600 00000 n The high specificity values suggest that the RBANS can be used to identify negative cases (e.g., those without MCI), which still could be useful for clinical trials by excluding inappropriate subjects. RBANSalso has utility as a screener for neurocognitive status in younger patients. 0000054891 00000 n The Repeatable Battery for Neuropsychological Status (RBANS; Randolph, 2012) can be administered in a telepractice context by using digital tools from Q-global , Pearson's secure online-testing and scoring platform. Although most cognitive tests were corrected for age and education, three were not (BVMT-R, HVLT-R, and WRAT-3 Reading). Although RBANS Update was originally developed with a primary focus on assessment of dementia, special group studies are available for Alzheimer's Disease, Vascular Dementia, HIV Dementia, Huntington's Disease . However, if a full RBANS has been administered, there are five Index scores [ 0 0 612 792 ] >> The RBANS is a brief standardized screening tool to measure neuropsychological status in adults aged 20 to 89 that was introduced in 1998 by Christopher Randolph, Neuropsychologist. Objective cognitive deficits were examined for four cognitive domains: (a) memory (mean age-corrected delayed recall trials of the HVLT-R and BVMT-R), (b) executive functioning (age- and education-corrected time to complete TMT-B), (c) language (age- and education-corrected score on animal fluency), and (d) attention/processing speed (age- and education-corrected score on SDMT). Second, if patients with preclinical or early AD were included in the OKLAHOMA sample, this would serve to pull down the non-AD comparison RBANS scores, which would .

It consists of 12 subtests, which yield five Index scores and a Total Scale score. Although RBANS Update was originally developed with a primary focus on assessment of dementia, special group studies are available for Alzheimers Disease, Vascular Dementia, HIV Dementia, Huntingtons Disease, Parkinsons Disease, Depression, Schizophrenia, and Closed Head Injury. The purpose of this study was to synthesize the utility of those indicators to assess performance validity. Clinical normative data for a large sample of inpatients and outpatients with schizophrenia spectrum disorders is available (Wilk, Gold, Humber, Dickerson, Fenton, & Buchanan, 2004). ! Although these references do not encompass all MCI papers and their criteria for defining this state, they do suggest that there are many different definitions of MCI (both conventional and unconventional). Clipboard, Search History, and several other advanced features are temporarily unavailable. MCI = Mild Cognitive Impairment; RBANS = Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status. It was hypothesized that the MCI participants would perform more poorly than matched peers on most RBANS Index and subtest scores, especially on those that assess learning and memory, as our sample was primarily amnestic MCI (single- or multidomain). To be classified as MCI, participants and/or their collateral source had to report memory problems in the participant and deny functional impairments and objective cognitive deficits were present. An level of 0.05 was maintained to test the three primary analyses. 2013 May 6;13:127. doi: 10.1186/1471-244X-13-127. Neuropsychology Scoring Suite. Epub 2008 Jul 9. 0000018448 00000 n The cutoff of the 7th percentile is 1.5 SD below the mean, which is a typical demarcation point for cognitive deficits in MCI. On the other hand, sensitivity values and positive predictive powers were quite poor for these memory subtests and Indexes on the RBANS (with the Delayed Memory Index and Total Scale having the best combination of sensitivity and specificity at the 1.0 SD cutoff). After 12 months of cochlear implantation usage, the RBANS-H total scores improved significantly (p<0.001).

Although these two Indexes do fall approximately 1 SD below premorbid intellect, these two Memory Indexes still fall in the average range. *Cost per usage between $1.25and $1.75depending on volume discounts. Conversely, a mildly impaired score (e.g., 5th percentile) could be averaged with a borderline score (e.g., 12th percentile) to yield a mean score that fell above the cutoff (e.g., mean score = 8th percentile).
