Bold type: relevant findings. Cut-off scores are only reported when applicable.

StN: stanine scores, this is a method of scaling test scores on a nine-point standard scale with a mean of five and a standard deviation of two. It is the Standard Method for rating neuropsychological test scores on the Italian Population. StN = 0 is outside normative limits, StN = 1indicates lower limit of control population. %ile indicates conversion from the stanine scale into percentile based on the normative data. FAB: Frontal assessment battery; WCST: Wisconsin Card Sorting Test; TMTA: trail making test part A; TMTB trail making test part B. In bold the impaired performance.
