Area of Science:

  • Neuropsychology
  • Cognitive assessment

Background:

  • The Rey-Osterrieth complex figure test (ROCF) is crucial for evaluating visuospatial skills, memory, and executive functions.
  • Establishing current normative data is essential for accurate clinical interpretation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To collect normative values for the ROCF (copying and delayed recall) in a contemporary Italian population.
  • To analyze the influence of demographic factors on ROCF performance.

Main Methods:

  • A sample of 280 healthy Italian adults completed the ROCF direct copying and delayed recall tasks.
  • Multiple regression analysis was used to assess the effects of age, education, and sex.

Main Results:

  • Performance on both ROCF tasks was significantly influenced by age and education.

  • Sex had a significant effect only on the delayed recall task.
  • Inferential cut-offs and equivalent scores were calculated.

    • Conclusions:

    • The study provides essential normative data for the ROCF in Italy.
    • Equivalent scores facilitate comparisons with other neuropsychological tests.
    • These findings enhance the clinical utility of the ROCF for Italian individuals.
