The Performance of Children With Traumatic Head Injury on the Wide Range Assessment of Memory and Learning-Screening
Abstract
The factor structure of the Screening version of the Wide Range Assessment of Memory and Learning (WRAML-S; Sheslow & Adams, 1990) was evaluated in the standardization sample and in a sample of 100 children with traumatic head injury (THI). A two-factor model (including verbal and nonverbal dimensions) fit the standardization data relatively best, but a one-factor model was supported in the THI sample. In the latter sample, the WRAML-S Memory Screening Index (MSI) correlated just as strongly with length of coma as did Performance IQ. Presence of diffuse lesions or right cerebral focal lesions was associated with lower MSI scores. Children with severe THI had significantly lower MSI scores than did children with mild or moderate injuries. We conclude that MSI is an adequate screening measure of immediate recall after severe THI, but we suggest caution against exclusive reliance on this measure in clinical pediatric neuropsychological evaluations.

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.
