Self-reported disability-seeking predicts PVT failure in veterans undergoing clinical neuropsychological evaluation

Michael David Horner et al.

Summary: This study investigated the role of disability-related factors in predicting performance on a neuropsychological evaluation for Veterans. The findings showed that Veterans receiving disability benefits for psychiatric or neurological conditions were more likely to perform poorly on the evaluation, and Veterans in the process of applying for disability benefits were also more likely to fail.

All of the accuracy in half of the time: assessing abbreviated versions of the Test of Memory Malingering in the context of verbal and visual memory impairment

Cari D. Cohen et al.

Summary: The TOMM T1 is a reliable performance validity test with strong psychometric properties regardless of material-specificity and severity of memory impairment. On the other hand, T1-e10 functions relatively well with mild memory impairment but has reduced discriminability with severe memory impairment.

Cross-validation of three Advanced Clinical Solutions performance validity tests: Examining combinations of measures to maximize classification of invalid performance

Kathleen M. Bain et al.

Summary: The study found that the WCT in the ACS package was more accurate in detecting invalid performance compared to the other two measures, while the embedded RDS and LMR measures showed limited utility, particularly in individuals with cognitive impairment.

Evaluation of the classification accuracy of multiple performance validity tests in a mixed clinical sample

Johanna Messerly et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the classification accuracy of multiple standalone/embedded performance validity tests (PVTs) and found that TOMM and WMT showed the best agreement, while the Digit Span age-corrected scaled score had the highest agreement. These findings support the use of a combination of different PVTs to identify suboptimal performance.

A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of the Diagnostic Accuracy of the Advanced Clinical Solutions Word Choice Test as a Performance Validity Test

Matthew T. Bernstein et al.

Summary: Thorough assessment of performance validity has become an established standard in neuropsychological assessment, with the development of both embedded and freestanding performance validity tests (PVTs) like the Word Choice Test (WCT). Research has shown that the WCT can effectively identify invalid neuropsychological test performance, with an optimal cut-score of <=42, providing 54% sensitivity and 93% specificity.
