Standardization

Standardization of a Patient’s Score

• One common metric (Z-score) for all tests (M=0, SD=1).

• Subtract the Normative Mean from a patient’s score and divide by Normative Standard Deviation (e.g. (X-M)/SD).

• IQ example (M=100, SD=15):• your score (145) .• minus the Normative Mean: 145-100= 45.• divided by the Normative SD: 45/15=3.• An IQ of 145 = Z score of 3 which is > 99th %ile.

Page 9: The Screen for Cognitive Impairment in Psychiatry … · The Screen for Cognitive Impairment in Psychiatry ... LD, Long Delayed; RAVLT, Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test; SD, Short

9

Standardization for Group Comparisons

• A common metric for Effect Size: Cohen’s d (M=0, SD=1).

• Subtract control sample M from patient sample M, and divide by SD (pooled).

• IQ example:• Patient Group: M=85, SD=15.• minus a Control Group: 85-100 = -15.• divided by the Pooled SD: -15/15 = -1.• Cohen’s d=1 (1 SD separates the patients from the controls). • 1SD = approximately the 16th percentile.

Cognitive Domains Relevant to PsychiatryDOMAIN SUBJECTIVE OBJECTIVE

Attention• Have trouble concentrating on

things like watching a television program or reading a book (PDQ Attention).

• WAIS-IV Digit Span• WAIS-IV Arithmetic, Letter-Number Sequencing.• WMS-IV Visual Span.• SCIP Consonant Trigrams.

Memory

• Forgot the date, unless you looked it up (PDQ Prospective).

• Forgot what you talked about after a telephone conversation (PDQ Retrospective).

• Rey Auditory Verbal List Learning (RAVLT)• Other VLLT (CVLT, HVLLT, BSRT)• WMS-IV Logical Memory.• Non-Verbal Tests (ROCFT, WMS-IV Visual

Reproduction and Memory for Designs).• SCIP Verbal List Learning Test

Psychomotor speed

• Moving or speaking more slowly so other people would have noticed (PHQ-9, though confounded with ‘the opposite, moving or speaking faster’).

• WAIS IV Coding (aka. DSST)• Serial Response Tests (e.g. CPT)• Trail Making A• Trail Making B (exe)• SCIP Visuomotor Tracking Test

Executive function

• Have trouble getting things organized

• Feel like your mind went totally blank (PDQ Planning and Organization)

Objective Cognitive Measurement - Example 2: Rey Auditory Verbal List Learning Test (RAVLT)

Rey. L’Examen Clinique en Psychologie. 1964; Lezak. Neuropsychological Assessment. 1983

RAVLT PROCEDURE:-15 common nouns (A) presented one per second.- Subject asked to repeat list after each presentation.- Repeat (typically 5 times). - An interference list (B), a delayed recall trail (A), and recognition.

Objective Cognitive Measurement - Example 3: Psychomotor Speed with the DSST

• The strategy to solve the DSST consists of sequential

encoding and retrieval of numbers and matching

symbols

• The score is the number of correct number–symbol

matches (maximum number of correct, 133)

• Time given is 90 seconds

1. First, the subtest (the squares to the left of the heavy

black line) is encoded in short-term memory and

temporarily stored (the test should not proceed until the

patient has clearly understood the subtest)

2. Then the number is repeatedly retrieved and compared

with the numbers of the key grid

3. Once the number is recognised, the matching symbol is

encoded and attention is turned to the test session, the

symbol retrieved from the short-term memory and

copied below the number

• Incidental memory

• Perceptual organisation

• Visuomotor coordination

• Selective attention

• Ability to filter out irrelevant information (e.g., symbols

which may look alike)

Summary

• Cognitive impairment is common to most serious mental illnesses.

• Large batteries of standardized neuropsychological t ests are useful for localization of pathology, and detection of deficits and change with medications (cost and degree of expertise is high).

• Individual standardized tests are available to detect deficits and medication effects including the popular Digit Span, RAVLT, DSST, Stroop (requires individual forms and manuals).

• The Screen for Cognitive Impairment in Psychiatry ( SCIP) is efficient, co-normed, sensitive to deficits in MDD, SC, and BPD, as well as sensitive to the effects of cannabis on cognition.

1. List Learning Test: You will read the list of words 3 times, requesting recall after each presentation. For the 1st trial , say "I am going to read a list of words to you. After I am done, I want you t o repeat back as many words as you can in any order ". Read the list of 10 words at a pace of about 3 seconds per word. Solicit and record recall. For the 2nd trial say "Now I am going to read the list of words again. Onc e again, when I am finished, repeat back as many words as you can remember in any order, including t he ones you have already told me ." 3rd trial say " I am going to repeat the list one last time. As bef ore, when I am finished, repeat back as many words as yo u can remember in any order, including the ones you have already told me." After subject has remembered all the words they can say "I want you to remember these words as best as you c an because I am going to ask you to recall the list again in a fewminutes".

2. Consonant trigrams: You will read a series of three letters and request recall after delays of varying lengths filled with a simple distraction task. The form has the stimulus letters, the delay interval (0 seconds, 3 seconds, etc.) and the distraction initiation number (i.e. the number from which the subject will begin to count down). Say, "I am going to say some letters and when I am finish ed I want you to repeat them. Ok? (give first set of 2 which have a delay of 0 seconds; hence no distraction). Then say, “Now I am going to say some letters and a number. Th is time I want you to count backwards from the numb er until I ask you for the letters. For example if I say ABC, 10 – you would count backwards out loud from 10 until I ask you for the letters and then you would say ABC ”. Solicit and record recall of the letters (score each letter recalled regardless of order recalled).

3. Verbal Fluency: You will request the subject to generate as many words as they can to a particular letter. Say, "I am going to say a letter of the alphabet and I want you to tell me as many words as you can that begin with that letter. There are th ree rules to this task. The first rule is that you c annot use words that are numbers, such as for the letter “T” saying thirty-one and thirty-two. The second r ule is that you cannot use any words that are common ly capitalized, such as the name of a place, a friend, or a city. The third rule is that you should not provide one word and repeatedly change the ending, such as dance, dancer, and dancing. Any questions? The first letter is __, tell me all the words you can t hink of that begin with ___. Allow 30 seconds for generation. Now tell me all the words you can thin k of that begin with the letter __. Go ahead ." Allow 30 seconds for generation.

4. Delayed List Learning: Say, "Do you remember that list that we went over the thr ee times earlier, I want you to tell me as many wor ds as you can from that list, in any order. " Do not read the words again. Solicit and record recall.

5. Visuomotor Tracking: You will request the subject to rapidly translate the symbols from the code listed at the top to the appropriate boxes below.The test has a series of (shaded) practice items to be used for training, followed by the formal stimuli. Allow 30 seconds. Say, "If you look at these letters (point to code box) you will see that each letter has a code. Down here what I want you to do is fill in each bo x with the code that corresponds to the letter." Fill in three of the letters, saying “ this is an ___, so I will put ___ in “ . ie. This is a w, so I put dot, dash dash. After filling in first three, tell subject to “Ok, now I want you to do these three in the shaded area for practice” , correcting any of S’s mistakes. After that say “When I say start, fill these in (pointing) one afte r another as quickly as you can without making any mistakes. Do you have any questions?

Z-Score conversions: Part 1. Z=(AVLT Immediate – 24)/3. Part 2. Z=(CTT total – 21)/3. Part 3. Z=(OWF total – 18)/5. Part 4. Z=(AVLD – 8)/2. Part 5. Z=(VMT-14)/2.5. Global index is the average Z across the five tests.
