“…A recent study (Mottram & Donders, 2005) assessed the construct validity of the CVLT-C in a sample of children with TBI through confirmatory factor analysis. The results strongly supported a four-factor solution that included Attention Span, Learning Efficiency, Delayed Recall, and Inaccurate Recall.…”

“…Specifically, the four variables with the highest loadings on each of the four factors found in previous research (Mottram & Donders, 2005) were included. Cluster analysis was used to group participants on these four variables in such a way that the similarity between participants within subtypes (clusters) was maximized while at the same time the similarity between participants from different clusters was minimized.…”

The purpose of this study is to determine the presence of profile subtypes on the California Verbal Learning Test-Children's Version (CVLT-C; Delis, Kramer, Kaplan, and Ober, 1994) in 175 children with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Four key z score variables are used in a 2-stage cluster analysis that reveal 4 reliable subtypes. No meaningful differences among the clusters are found on demographic variables. In contrast, statistically significant differences among the 4 clusters in both level and pattern of performance are found on injury severity parameters and the 4 factor index scores from an independent measure of psychometric intelligence (Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Third Edition; Wechsler, 1991). This study concludes that although no unique profile is found on the CVLT-C after TBI in children, performance on this test is affected strongly by injury severity, with a mediating contribution by speed of information processing.

“…In particular, we wanted to explore whether these correlates would be similar to or different from those of laboratory cognitive test performance by the same children. For the latter purpose, we chose the California Verbal Learning Test for Children (CVLT-C; Delis, Kramer, Kaplan, & Ober, 1994), a test of verbal learning and memory that has been thoroughly validated as having construct and criterion validity in the evaluation of pediatric TBI (Miller & Donders, 2003;Mottram & Donders, 2005).…”

This study aimed to evaluate the degree to which the Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function (BRIEF) and Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) measure overlapping vs. distinct constructs in pediatric patients with mild traumatic brain injury (TBI), and to examine the demographic and injury correlates of such constructs as well as those of cognitive test performance. A total of 100 parents completed the BRIEF and the CBCL within 1 to 12 months after the injury of their child. Groups were contrasted based on the presence vs. absence of impairment on, respectively, the BRIEF and the CBCL. Exploratory maximum likelihood factor analysis was used to evaluate latent constructs. Correlates of the various factor scores were evaluated through regression analysis and contrasted with those of a test of verbal learning and memory.The results revealed that the BRIEF and the CBCL disagree about the presence vs. absence of impairment in about one quarter of cases. A prior history of attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) was associated with an increased likelihood of impairment on both the BRIEF and the CBCL, whereas prior outpatient psychiatric treatment was associated with the increased likelihood of selective impairment on the CBCL. Latent constructs manifested themselves along cognitive regulation, emotional adjustment and behavioral regulation factors. Whereas premorbid characteristics were the exclusive correlates of these factors, performance on a test of verbal learning and memory was negatively affected by intracranial lesions on neuroimaging.It is concluded that the BRIEF and the CBCL offer complementary and non-redundant information about daily functioning after pediatric mild TBI. The correlates of cognitive test performance and parental behavior ratings after such injuries are different and reflect a divergence between premorbid and injury-related influences.
