Do normative data from the full WCST extend to the abbreviated WCST?
Abstract
The standard Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST) was administered to a mixed clinical sample of 332 individuals. The full version was compared to the 64-card version (WCST-64) by extracting the results of the first 64 cards. Percent scores for the WCST were converted to standard scores using the normative data corrected for age and education level. Percent scores for WCST-64 were converted to standard scores using the same WCST normative data. WCST-64 scores were not comparable to those obtained from the full WCST. A breakdown of the data based on performance level found WCST-64 to be useful only with respondents obtaining five or more categories by the end of the first deck. The authors recommend caution in applying WCST manual data to the WCST-64 in the clinical setting.

In clinical settings it is inappropriate to extrapolate norms from the full WCST version to the single-deck version.
“Previous research (Axelrod, Paolo & Abraham, 1997) has shown that in clinical settings it is inappropriate to extrapolate norms from the full WCST version to the single-deck version used in the current study.”

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.
