Normative data for the Spreen-Benton Sentence Repetition Test: its relationship to age, intelligence, and memory

The present study provided normative data applicable to a cortically-impaired adult population on the Spreen-Benton Sentence Repetition Test. Data were presented for decade groups ranging from 20 to 70 years. The current research indicated that intelligence may play a relatively strong role in performance on this test; also, that memory may be involved, but to a lesser degree. It was recommended that patients' intellectual levels be considered when interpreting the results of the Sentence Repetition Test.
