Abstract:
Twelve measures commonly used to assess attentional processes were examined in a sample of 120 outpatients referred for neuropsychological evaluation. A single factor solution emerged. A second analysis partially replicated factors derived by Shum. McFarland, Bain, and Humphreys (1990). Classification rates (impaired vs. unimpaired) for the measures are presented. The implications of these findings for clinical assessment of attention are discussed
