Title: FURTHER EVIDENCE CONCERNING THE DIAGNOSTIC ACCURACY OF THE HALSTEAD ORGANIC TEST BATTERY.
Authors: Lacks, Patricia Brilliant, Colbert, John, Harrow, Martin, Levine, Jacob
Source: Journal of Clinical Psychology. Oct1970, Vol. 26 Issue 4, p480-481. 2p.
Subjects: Clinical psychology, Halstead-Reitan Neuropsychological Test Battery, Bender-Gestalt Test, People with schizophrenia, Medical screening, Neuropsychological tests
Abstract: The article highlights on further evidence concerning the diagnostic accuracy of the Halstead Organic Test Battery. This study investigated the usefulness of the Halstead Organic Test Battery in a clinically realistic task, that is, separating organics from a nonorganic group that includes schizophrenics. This battery and the Bender-Gestalt test were given to 19 organic, 27 schizophrenic, and 18 general medical patients. Results showed that the value of the lengthy Halstead battery as a screening measure of organicity can be seriously questioned, since, it represents no improvement of diagnostic accuracy over the very brief Bender-Gestalt.
