Criterion Validity of the Neuropsychological Assessment Battery after Traumatic Brain Injury
Abstract
The performance of 54 patients with complicated mild-severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) was evaluated on the Attention, Executive Functions, and Memory modules of the Neuropsychological Assessment Battery (NAB) and compared with that of 54 demographically matched healthy controls. All three NAB indices demonstrated statistically significant group differences and negative covariances with the duration of coma, with large effect sizes. The Numbers and Letters and Mazes subtests had the most consistent evidence for sensitivity to brain injury. The findings provide preliminary support for the criterion validity of the NAB in the assessment of patients with complicated mild-severe TBI.

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.
