在大多数标准的神经心理学评估中，手指敲击测试（FTT）已被作为一种嵌入式的绩效效度测量。本研究评估了三种不同的评分系统的效用，旨在检测无效的性能的基础上FTT。评分系统进行了评估，在神经心理学的情况下，从临床和独立的做法，其中可靠的性能是确定的基础上通过所有的性能有效性措施或失败的两个或两个以上的有效性指标。每种FTT评分方法的特异性约为90%，灵敏度略高于40%。当次优性能是基于三种评分方法中任何一种的失败时，特异性不变，灵敏度提高到50%。结果进行了讨论的效用相结合的多个评分措施，为同一个测试，以及嵌入式措施的好处管理的持续时间的评价。
The Finger Tapping Test (FTT) has been presented as an embedded measure of performance validity in most standard neuropsychological evaluations. The present study evaluated the utility of three different scoring systems intended to detect invalid performance based on FTT. The scoring systems were evaluated in neuropsychology cases from clinical and independent practices, in which credible performance was determined based on passing all performance validity measures or failing two or more validity indices. Each FTT scoring method presented with specificity rates at approximately 90% and sensitivity of slightly more than 40%. When suboptimal performance was based on the failure of any of the three scoring methods, specificity was unchanged and sensitivity improved to 50%. The results are discussed in terms of the utility of combining multiple scoring measures for the same test as well as benefits of embedded measures administered over the duration of the evaluation.
