Estimates of premorbid ability in a neurodegenerative disease clinic population: comparing the Test of Premorbid Functioning and the Wide Range Achievement Test, 4th Edition

Abstract: Estimates of premorbid intelligence obtained from the TOPF and WRAT-4 READ have a strong linear relationship, but systematically generate inconsistent estimates in a neurodegenerative disease clinical sample and should not be used interchangeably.

“…Agreement or comparability is frequently discussed but rarely systematically examined in the neuropsychological literature. Although the methods used in this study are common in other fields, only a handful of studies in the neuropsychological literature have made use of these methods to assess agreement between scores on a continuous scale (e.g., Berg, Durant, Banks, & Miller, 2016). The current practice is to rely on estimates of linear agreement (e.g., Pearson’s correlations) which fail to capture constant differences, or mean differences (e.g., t -tests), which capture constant differences but not random or proportional differences, as large measurement error will result in the incorrect conclusion that the methods are equivalent.…”

“…In contrast to an absolute definition of agreement (i.e., Y = X), a consistency definition measures the degree of additivity, or how well a measure can be equated from another (i.e., Y = X + a ), between scales and ignores differences in the means (Schuck, 2004). The CCC is preferred over the Pearson correlation coefficient when examining the rate of agreement between two measures (Barchard, 2012; King & Chinchilli, 2001; Lin, 1989; Berg et al, 2016). The Pearson correlation coefficient demonstrates whether there is a linear relationship between measures but unlike the CCC, the Pearson correlation coefficient does not take into account differences in means and standard deviations.…”

“…The Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT) [26] and the alcohol, smoking and substance involvement screening test (ASSIST) [27] are used to screen for substance use history. The Test of Premorbid Functioning (TOPF) [28] is given to assess pre-TBI intelligence. Cognitive executive function measures are gathered using the ANAM (Matching-to-sample Test, Mathematical Processing Test, Code Substitution Test, Stroop test, and Tower Puzzle) along with the Trail Making Tests (part A and B) and the Similar Situations Task.…”
