Note: EFA = Exploratory Factor Analysis; HRB = Halstead-Reitan Battery; eHRB = expanded Halstead-Reitan Battery; WAIS = Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scales; WAIS-R = Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scales-Revised. Light gray-shaded areas indicate loadings ≥0.24 (i.e., items with more than 5% overlapping variance with the factor); and dark gray-shaded areas indicate loadings ≥0.4 considered priorities for factor interpretation.
