ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
Cognitrone Test is one of the computerized neurocognitive tests included in Vienna Test System. It assesses the ability of visuoperceptual analysis, continuous attention and the speed of information-processing. The present study aims at presenting the normative data of Korean adults for Cognitrone Test.METHODS:
Cognitrone Test was administered to 353 healthy Korean volunteers aged 18 years and over. Number of correct responses, number of correct Yes-responses, number of correct No-responses, mean time of correct Yes-responses, and mean time of correct No-responses were measured in each individual. Initially the subjects were subgrouped by sex, age and educational level. And the subgroups showing similar levels of functioning were put together and analyzed as a larger unitary group. The subgroups without enough number of cases were excluded from the analysis.RESULTS:
Summary scores for five variables of Cognitrone Test were given in the form of percentile and T-score distribution. For three variables representing the correctness of responses, normative data of unitary group(aged 18 to 50 years & educated more than 12 years) were presented. For two variables representing the speed of information processing, normative data of two groups(one; aged 18 to 30 years & educated more than 12 years, the other; aged 31 to 50 years & educated more than 12 years) were presented.CONCLUSIONS:
The normative data of Cognitrone Test presented would be very useful in both clinical practice and research.Palavras-chave
