| Publication Abstract Display | | Type: Poster | | Title: Halstead Category Test Norms for native Spanish speakers from the US - Mexico border region. | | Authors: Cherner M, Marquine M, Suarez P, Umlauf A, Cort A, Artiola i Fortuny L, Heaton R, and the HNRC Group | | Date: 02-12-2014 | | Abstract:On average, the new Spanish language norms increased T-scores by over 9 points and reduced misclassification of impairment by 33%.
Misclassification was evident across the education range but was worst among those with the lowest formal education.
Demographically adjusted, population-specific norms result in many fewer classification errors and contribute to the armamentarium of available assessment tools for U.S. Spanish speakers. |
