Category test and trail making test as measures of frontal lobe functions
Abstract
A brief review of the literature reveals that many psychologists believe that certain tests measure frontal lobe deficits. However, recent carefully controlled studies suggest that neuropsychological deficits are far from specific for frontal versus nonfrontal lesions. In this study, we compared groups with frontal and nonfrontal cerebral lesions that were approximately equivalent for types of lesions and other variables. No intergroup differences were found on the Category Test and Part B of the Trail Making Test. The results suggest that neuropsychologists should adopt a more critical attitude concerning so-called “frontal lobe deficits.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
