This study provides normative data for the Rey-Osterrieth Complex Figure B Test (ROCF-B), a simple tool for assessing constructional praxis and visuospatial memory in adults and the elderly.

Area of Science:

  • Neuropsychology
  • Cognitive Neuroscience

Background:

  • Clinical neuropsychology faces challenges in diagnosing dementia with accessible and sensitive memory tests.
  • Existing cognitive tests may not be suitable for older adults with low education due to complexity.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present normative values for the Rey-Osterrieth Complex Figure B Test (ROCF-B).
  • To establish ROCF-B as a valid instrument for assessing non-verbal memory in adults and the elderly.

Main Methods:

  • Collected normative data for copy, immediate, and delayed recall of the ROCF-B from 346 Italian adults over 40.
  • Utilized multiple regression analysis to assess the impact of age, sex, and education.

Main Results:

  • Age and education significantly influenced performance on copying, immediate recall, and delayed recall.

  • Age and education also affected the rate of forgetting in the ROCF-B tasks.

    • Conclusions:

    • The ROCF-B, with its normative data, offers a practical alternative to more demanding tests like the ROCF-A.
    • This test can aid in the reliable and early diagnosis of dementia by assessing non-verbal memory.
