本章重点介绍“认知模式比较处理速度测试”,该测试是为了评估NIH认知成套测验(CB)中的处理速度而开发的。我们描述了测试的发展,突出其在儿童中的效用。此外,我们检查描述性数据,重测信度,有效性,并创建一个处理速度的综合指数的初步工作。结果表明,大多数儿童能够理解的基本概念的图形比较加工速度测试。此外,重测信度是优秀的。检查收敛和判别效度的分析提供了支持的效用的测试作为衡量处理速度。最后,分析比较和结合的分数上的图形比较处理速度测试与其他措施的简单反应时间从美国国立卫生研究院的图形比较处理速度测试表明,处理速度综合评分表现优于任何测试孤立地检查。综上所述,认知模式比较处理速度测试似乎表现出了许多优势:它对儿童友好且引人入胜,简短且易于管理,并且具有良好的结构效度,特别是当用作综合评分的一部分时。
This chapter focuses on the Toolbox Pattern Comparison Processing Speed Test, which was developed to assess processing speed within the NIH Toolbox Cognition Battery (CB). We describe the development of the test, highlighting its utility in children. In addition, we examine descriptive data, test-retest reliability, validity, and preliminary work creating a composite index of processing speed. Results indicated that most children were able to understand the basic concepts of the Toolbox Pattern Comparison Processing Speed Test. Further, test-retest reliability was excellent. Analyses examining convergent and discriminant validity provided support for the utility of the test as a measure of processing speed. Finally, analyses comparing and combining scores on the Toolbox Pattern Comparison Processing Speed Test with other measures of simple reaction time from the NIH Toolbox CB indicated that a Processing Speed Composite score performed better than any test examined in isolation. Taken together, the Toolbox Pattern Comparison Processing Speed Test appears to exhibit a number of strengths: it is child-friendly and engaging, short and easy to administer, and has good construct validity, especially when used as part of a composite score.
