在60名受试者(30名病理性受试者和30名对照受试者)的样本中，用判别分析技术从精神退化成套测验(MDB)(1)中获得了一套简明的精神退化评估工具，其分类正确率为98%。该测验由雷氏S 15字测验、即刻视觉记忆测验、弹幕测验和简单类比测验四个测验组成。该测验对60名正常受试者进行测试，并用多元统计技术给出了“正常”和“非正常”的概率定义。当应用于病理组和对照组时，这种概率二分分类得到了与以前几乎相同的分组。
A brief battery for mental deterioration assessment was obtained by Discriminant Analysis techniques from the Mental Deterioration Battery (MDB) (1) and yielded 98% correct classifications in a sample of 60 subjects (30 pathological and 30 controls). This battery, named Brief Mental Deterioration Battery (BMDB), both quick and easy to administer, is composed of four tests: Rey''s 15 Words Test, Immediate Visual Memory, Barrage, and Simple Analogies Test. MDB was administered to a further sample of 60 normal subjects and, by multivariate statistical techniques, a probabilistic definition of "normality" and consequently of "non-normality" was given. When applied to pathological and control groups, this probabilistic dichotomic classification yielded groups almost identical to the previous ones.
