The current study sought to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the RBANS in detecting milder cognitive deficits, such as those associated with amnestic MCI. The RBANS assesses five broad domains of cognition, i.e. It is possible that the low sensitivity suggests that our cases of amnestic MCI do not really have this condition. sHn)F RBANS Update provides significant improvements and is ideal for measuring change over time. x}OhPt2p1TC;2/mudiILcsGT$oE'ECaP{hDB.

The areas under a curve (AUC) of an ROC represent the probability that normal and abnormal test scores will be correctly classified as the disease state (Hanley & McNeil, 1982). As can be seen in Table1, participants classified as amnestic MCI (single- or multidomain) and cognitively intact were comparable in education (p = .81), gender (p = .09), and GDS scores (p = .06). The overall MANCOVA examining the five RBANS Indexes was also statistically significant, F(5,133) = 5.37, p < .001, partial 2 = 0.17. the browser treats them as text files), hold These cutoff scores would be equivalent to standard scores (i.e., M = 100, SD = 15) of 85, 77, and 70, respectively. The results of this study provide equivocal support for the RBANS in these mildly impaired individuals. The test measures the following components: It consists of 12 subtests, which yield five Index scores and a Total Scale score. Significant differences were observed on the RBANS Total score, 3 of the 5 Indexes, and 6 of the 12 subtests, with individuals with MCI performing worse than the comparison participants.

In clinical practice, it may be more feasible to tailor diagnostic decisions to the individual with some flexibility (e.g., weighting multiple sources of information and test data), whereas research requires more standardized cutoff scores that might somewhat arbitrarily separate a true continuum (e.g., cognitive functioning).

The AUC for each of the Index scores and Total Score were as follows: Immediate Memory = 0.76, Visuospatial Constructional = 0.65, Language = 0.71, Attention = 0.62, Delayed Memory = 0.78, and Total Score = 0.78.

Normative data provided age- and education-corrected Index and subtest scores (Duff et al., 2003), and these were used in the following analyses.

Sensitivity refers to the proportion of actual positive cases that are correctly identified as such (e.g., the percentage of MCI cases who are identified as having MCI). National Library of Medicine Further, ROC curves can provide a single estimate of diagnostic accuracy that does not require that ordinal and continuous test scores be simplified and therefore allow for the full range of cognitive scores to be examined (Lett, Hanley, & Smith, 1995). 1 0 obj Assessment of Neuropsychological Status (RBANS) as well as the relationship of the RBANS to symptoms and employment status. Supplemental and original scoring templates for the CVLT-II, COWAT, and RBANS, as well as Premorbid IQ estimates and more. Seventy-one individuals were classified as intact. Specifically, Q-global digital assets (e.g., stimulus books) can be shown to the 2016 Dec 15;11(12):e0167390. Smaller, but still statistically significant, differences were observed in the current study (e.g., 9.0 standard score points on the Delayed Memory Index). endobj Before Some supplementary methods for the analysis of the RBANS. Although this is not an ideal situation, mixed results in assessing the diagnostic accuracy of a test is not uncommon in medicine. Individuals with this cognitive profile are at greater risk for converting to dementia across time than those without MCI (Petersen et al., 2001). More recently, the diagnostic accuracy of the RBANS has been shown to adequately detect cognitive impairment associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD; Duff, Humphreys Clark, et al., 2008). However, this was not a cutoff score, and of course, nearly half of the group had memory performance score falling somewhat <1.5 SD below the mean. Additionally, the AUC from the ROC analyses suggested adequate separation between the two groups in the current study on measures of learning and memory. Norms were corrected for years of schooling, as this variable also shared over 5% of the . However, the generally low sensitivity suggests that the RBANS does not accurately identify the cases of interest (e.g., those with MCI). endobj }HuO9-rX J/AMNg:NFRwOH7f f9~6lW When examining the comparison group in these two studies, our study's comparison group was larger, slightly younger, and had more women than Duff and colleagues. Briefly, the modified scoring criteria of the figure followed less stringent adherence to the manual's scoring criteria. Table 2 shows the correlation coefficients and the coefficients of determination for the different RBANS subtests and the sociodemographic variables age, sex, and years of schooling. The second, "average" group ( n = 368), scored from 90 to 109, and the "above average" group ( n = 182) scored 110 or greater. For example, 4.6% of the sample had a increase in their Total scaled score on the second testing between 16 and 20 points (inclusive). 10 0 obj Includes Stimulus Book B (Print), 25 Record Forms B (Print), Score Template B, Includes Stimulus Book C (Print), 25 Record Forms C (Print), Score Template C, Includes Stimulus Book D (Print), 25 Record Forms D (Print), Score Template D, Includes Stimulus Books A-D (Print), Coding Templates A-D and Manual (Print); designed for Clinical Trials or Research where Record Forms will be acquired in alternative formats. Aberdeen, AB25 2UB, UK. When examining all five Index scores simultaneously, it was common for inpatients to obtain three or more frankly impaired scores (i.e., less than the 2nd percentile). All participants provided informed consent prior to participation, and all procedures were approved by the local Institutional Review Board. HHS Vulnerability Disclosure, Help Clinical normative data for a large sample of inpatients and outpatients with schizophrenia spectrum disorders is available (Wilk, Gold, Humber, Dickerson, Fenton, & Buchanan, 2004). This newly published test takes 25 minutes to administer and was standardized on a U.S.-Census-matched adult population. details are available in the footer of this page. If you have any problems (i.e. Men performed better than women on the Visuospatial/Constructional Index (Cohen's d= .47). Notes: SN = sensitivity; SP = specificity. Although an ideal diagnostic test would have an optimal balance of sensitivity and specificity, the current study did not find that balance in the RBANS.

Some may view this approach as unconventional, as others in the field require individuals to fall 1.5 SD below the mean of normative data. The clinician may be challenged by persons who are of either high intellect whose performance is now in the statistically normal range, but this level of performance represents a change for that person, and by the person with a low education whose lower cognitive performance may not represent a change. In the original description of the MCI cohort followed at the Mayo Clinic, the MCI group's mean performance was 1.5 SD below their agemates.
