The study demonstrates that the telephone administration of the RAVLT is valid in discriminating between individuals with SCD and aMCI, showing strong known-groups and convergent validity with HVLT.
Objective: To examine known-groups validity of a telephone administration of the total learning scores of the Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test (RAVLT) in discriminating between people with subjective cognitive decline (SCD) and amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) and convergent validity of the telephone-RAVLT. Method: In total, 83 older adults (age = 71.4 +/- 7.0) with SCD or aMCI completed the RAVLT learning trials over the telephone and the Hopkins Verbal Learning Test (HVLT) in-person. Results: Telephone-RAVLT total recall significantly correlated with HVLT total recall (r =.49, p <.001). Significant between group differences were found (effect size = 0.94). Conclusions: This study provides support for known-groups and convergent validity of the telephone-RAVLT.
