Evaluation of adding the CANTAB computerized neuropsychological assessment battery to a traditional battery in a tertiary care center for veterans

Digital Cognitive Assessment Tests for Older Adults: Systematic Literature Review

“…In addition, automatic scoring helps professionals improve clinical diagnoses. The small difference between test batteries [59,[66][67][68][69]71] and computerized tests [57,64,72] is that the former has several tests and tasks designed to assess >4 different cognitive domains, whereas the latter includes fewer tests and focuses on a single cognitive domain. In general, computerized cognitive batteries, which are used on PCs, notebooks, or tablets, serve as supportive tools in clinical and community settings.…”

“…Table 6 shows the number of articles in terms of the evaluation of cognitive tasks in each application or test. Of the 20 articles, digital applications that included up to 5 different tests were found [61,67,68,76]. Six tests were found in the studies by Wong et al [59] and Takahashi et al [66], whereas 7 tests were found in the studies by Scharre et al [58], Groppell et al [63], and Chin et al [71].…”

“…However, the study by Rapp et al [61] did not include the years of study in the table. In the study by Schulz et al [68], the results were adjusted for age using Heaton-Revised Norms, while the study by Chan et al [74] adjusted for participants with fewer years of education and provided an "illiterate" version of the test, allowing for more time during administration. In addition, Rodriguez-Salgado et al [75], on the basis of sample controls, they adjusted for age, education, and sex using a regression-based approach, arguing that assessments are complicated by linguistic, ethnic, cultural, and socioeconomic diversity.…”

“…Concerning the psychometric validation process, Table S1 Multimedia Appendix 1 [42,[44][45][46][47]49,[57][58][59][60][61][62][63][64][65][66][67][68][69][70][71][72][73][74][75][76] displays the key parameters, including sensitivity, specificity, area under the curve, and correlation validity, with some traditional tests (on paper) such as the MoCA, MMSE, and CVLT. This table was the most difficult to prepare because some tests had nonhomogeneous validation parameters.…”

Neurocognitive correlates of probable posttraumatic stress disorder following traumatic brain injury

“…The test battery comprised the Trail Making Test (TMT) (Peri añez et al, 2007;Reitan, 1992), the Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test (RAVLT) (Callahan and Johnstone, 1994;Rey, 1994;Schmidt, 1996), and the Cambridge Neuropsychological Test Automated Battery (CANTAB) (CANTAB Cambridge Cognition, 2014;Schulz-Heik et al, 2020;Stenberg et al, 2020). The TMT is a two-part test that assesses information processing, attentional functioning and task switching/cognitive flexibility and the RAVLT assesses verbal learning and memory.…”
