Cognitive Test Description Outcome Measures
Attention Tests
Test Score
Choice Reaction Time (CRT) Two-choice reaction time test with two possible stimuli and two possible responses Mean correct latency (response speed)
Rapid Visual Information Processing (RVIP) Test of sustained attention A’—Signal detection measure of sensitivity to the target B”—Signal detection measure of the strength of trace required to elicit a response
Visual Memory Tests
Test Score
Delayed Match to Sample (DMS) Test of simultaneous and delayed matching to sample Percent correct (all delays)
Paired Associates Learning (PAL) Assesses visual memory and new learning Total errors (adjusted) Stages completed
Executive Function, Working Memory, and Planning Tests
Test Score
Spatial Span (SSP) Assesses working memory Span length
Spatial Span Reverse (SSP-R) Assesses working memory Span length
Spatial Working Memory (SWM) Tests ability to retain spatial information and manipulate items in working memory Between errors strategy
Stockings of Cambridge (SOC) Test of spatial planning and spatial working memory Problems solved in minimum moves; Mean total thinking time: four moves
