Melanie Joann Ventura – ProQuest LLC, 2024
In clinical and forensic evaluations, clinical neuropsychologists measure performance validity using standalone and embedded measures. Given the need to capture neuropsychological functioning through a variety of cognitive tests, newer, more sensitive measures should be evaluated for their utility in comparison to already established measures.…

Justyna Piszczor; Janina M. Kamm; Mackenze Jones; Colin Rubright; Jason R. Soble – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2024
Embedded performance validity tests (PVTs), like Digit Span PVTs from Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Fourth Edition (WAIS-IV), offer a valuable means of evaluating validity without extending administration time. This study investigated the utility of novel indices of performance inconsistency for WAIS-IV Digit Span (DS IRs) in the detection of…

Ryan, Joseph J.; Glass Umfleet, Laura; Gontkovsky, Samuel T. – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2021
This investigation provides internal consistency reliabilities for the Wechsler Memory Scale--Fourth Edition (WMS-IV) subtest and index discrepancy scores using the standardization samples of the Adult and Older Adult batteries. Subtest reliabilities ranged from 0.00 to 0.93 for Adults and 0.25 to 0.94 for Older Adults. Three of 91 Adult…

Zemach, Moran; Vakil, Eli; Lifshitz, Hefziba – Journal of Applied Research in Intellectual Disabilities, 2023
Background: Life expectancy is on rise and the intriguing question is: When does cognitive decline occur among adults with intellectual disability, compared to adults with typical development? This cross-sectional study examined cognitive performance of crystallised/fluid intelligence, working and long-term memory of adults with intellectual…

Amanda C. Miller; Irene Adjei; Hannah Christensen – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2024
Mind wandering occurs when a reader's thoughts are unrelated to the text's ideas. We examined the relation between mind wandering and readers' memory for text. More specifically, we assessed whether mind wandering inhibits the reader's development of the situation model and thus their ability to identify and recall the text's most central ideas.…

Harrison, Allyson G.; Holmes, Alana; Pollock, Bethany – Canadian Journal of School Psychology, 2021
Memory aids are now frequently provided to elementary and secondary school students to increase their success in achieving provincial curriculum standards. While such an accommodation may meet the immediate goal of improved academic performance it may not be warranted based on an actual long-term memory retrieval impairment and may therefore be…

Atmaca, Furkan; Baloglu, Mustafa – Gifted Child Quarterly, 2022
We compared the Wechsler scores of individuals with twice-exceptionality (2e) and giftedness using a three-level Bayesian meta-analysis. Ninety-five effect sizes were calculated from 15 studies (n = 2,106). Results show that individuals with 2e who have learning disabilities perform lower than individuals with giftedness in Full-Scale Intelligence…

Fitzhugh, Megan C.; LaCroix, Arianna N.; Rogalsky, Corianne – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: Sentence comprehension deficits are common following a left hemisphere stroke and have primarily been investigated under optimal listening conditions. However, ample work in neurotypical controls indicates that background noise affects sentence comprehension and the cognitive resources it engages. The purpose of this study was to examine…

Bril, Marco; Gerrits, Anouk; Visser, Merel – International Journal of Listening, 2022
Listening comprehension is a real-time process, yet very little is known about the variables affecting real-time second language (L2) listening. The present study aimed at investigating the effects of syntactic complexity and word frequency on L2 listening. Furthermore, the role of the listener's working memory capacity in listening comprehension…

Kaufman, Alan S. – Journal of Intelligence, 2021
U.S. Supreme Court justices and other federal judges are, effectively, appointed for life, with no built-in check on their cognitive functioning as they approach old age. There is about a century of research on aging and intelligence that shows the vulnerability of processing speed, fluid reasoning, visual-spatial processing, and working memory to…
