Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To present the development of an adapted version of the Boston Naming Test for Portuguese speakers, and to investigate the effects of age, education and gender on both the original and the adapted Boston Naming Test in respect of Brazilian Portuguese speakers. METHOD: Eighty items, including the 60 original ones and 20 adapted items were administered to 739 healthy Brazilian subjects aged between 6 and 77 years who received 0 to 17 years of education. RESULTS: The coefficients of the General Linear Model estimation suggested that both age and education were statistically significant to predict total scores. In addition, score variances, justified by such predictors, were 41.20% in the original Boston Naming Test against 25.84% in the adapted Boston Naming Test. These results suggest that the scores from the original BNT are more dependent on age and education than those from the adapted Boston Naming Test. CONCLUSION: These findings demonstrated the suitability of the adapted Boston Naming Test version for the Brazilian population and described provisional norms for the original and adapted Boston Naming Test for Portuguese speakers.

Abstract:
The 60 pictures of the Boston Naming Test were degraded via a mask to be either “easy,” “medium,” or “hard” to process visually. The visual mask was created by cutting a 2-in. x 2-in. square from a security mailing envelope and progressively reducing the size 25% on a copy machine. Three groups of 50 undergraduates each were randomly assigned to one of these three degradation conditions, and the number of correct identifications made was measured. We expected that as degradation increased (from easy to medium to hard), Boston Naming Test performance would decrease. A one-way analysis of variance indicated that group scores differed. With “easy” degradation more pictures were identified in comparison with performance in the “hard” degradation condition, but no other differences were significant. Results were discussed from the perspective of how unknown situational variables may affect performance on psychological tests.

Abstract:
AbstractSerial assessments are commonplace in neuropsychological practice and used to document cognitive trajectory for many clinical conditions. However, true change scores may be distorted by measurement error, repeated exposure to the assessment instrument, or person variables. The present study provides reliable change indices (RCI) for the Boston Naming Test, derived from a sample of 844 cognitively normal adults aged 56 years and older. All participants were retested between 9 and 24 months after their baseline exam. Results showed that a 4-point decline during a 9–15 month retest period or a 6-point decline during a 16–24 month retest period represents reliable change. These cutoff values were further characterized as a function of a person's age and family history of dementia. These findings may help clinicians and researchers to characterize with greater precision the temporal changes in confrontation naming ability. (JINS, 2012, 18, 375–378)

Abstract:
Background: Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is one of the most common respiratory disorders found in society. This condition is often found in men with obesity, men with hypertension history, and elderly. In relation to this, it is found that the researches on the effect of OSA risk level on language functions is rarely done. Therefore, this study is aimed at investigating the effect of OSA risk levels on Boston Naming Test score to the population in Mataram. Objective: to investigate the effect of OSA risk levels on language functions used the Boston Naming Test to the population in Mataram. Methods: This study belongs to analytic descriptive study with cross sectional approach. Held in Udayana Park, Dasan Sari, Mataram in May 2017 and September 2018. This study involved 132 respondents by ages among 40-74 years old. They are Chosen based on inclusion criteria. The OSA risk level was measured using The STOP-Bang questionnaire while language functions was measured using the Boston Naming Test. After That, the Mann-whitney comparative test was employed to analyzed the data. Results: The result of this study showed that, from 132 respondents, it was found that there were 66 (50%) respondents had a high risk level of OSA, and 82 (62%) respondents had language function disorders. Besides, the Mann-Whitney comparative analysis showed no effect on the risk level of OSA on Boston Naming Test score (p > 0.05). Conclusion: The risk level of OSA has no effect on Boston Naming Test score to the population aged 40-74 years in Mataram.

The poorly written administration and scoring instructions for the Boston Naming Test allow too wide a range of interpretations. Three different, seemingly correct interpretations of the scoring methods were compared. The results show that these methods can produce large differences in the total score.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to establish an adequate standardization sample for the Boston Naming Test. Three-hundred-fifty-seven subjects from kindergarten through sixth grade participated in this project. Means, standard deviations, and ranges of performance in accuracy and latency were established for age and grade. Based on our results, the Boston Naming Test appears to be an efficient and valid screening measure of students' word-finding skills at K through 6th grade levels.

Abstract:
Although most people have experienced word-finding difficulty at one time or another, there are no clinical instruments able to reliably distinguish normal age-related effects from pathology in word-finding impairment. Two experiments were conducted to establish a modified version of the Boston Naming Test (BNT) that includes latency times, the Boston Naming Test of Latencies (BNT-L), in order to improve the instrument's sensitivity to mild to moderate word-finding impairment. Experiment 1: Latency times on the 60-item BNT (Goodglass et al., 2001) for 235 healthy adults' ages 18-89 years were collected on a representative sample. Qualitative features of the BNT items, statistical analyses, IRT, and demographic considerations of age, gender, education, vocabulary, race and culture, helped create a reduced BNT-L version with 15 of the most discriminating items. Statistically sound and sophisticated normative tables are provided that adjust for unseen covariates. Response latencies did not indicate earlier age-related decline in an optimally healthy sample. Experiment 2: Twenty-three patients referred for neuropsychological testing were administered the BNT-L. Patients referred for evaluation of mild cognitive impairment or possible dementia produced significantly different response BNT-L latencies from the healthy sample whereas patients referred for mild brain injury evaluation did not. Normal word-finding problems were discussed in terms of serial stage models of lexical access, as well as in terms of automatic and controlled cognitive processes in younger and older adults. Statistical process for creating a psychometric instrument using latencies is illustrated.

Abstract:
Väl etablerade normativa data för äldre individer är av stor betydelse för att särskilja mellan normalt åldrande och tecken på demenssjukdom. Kortversioner av Boston Naming test och Token test ingår i screeningbatterier och används ofta vid neuropsykologiska undersökningar. Dock är befintliga normativa data för BNT30 och Token test begränsade vad gäller antalet individer över 80 år och inbegriper endast optimalt friska deltagare med hög utbildningsgrad. Denna tvärsnittsstudie inkluderar 213 kognitivt intakta 85-åringar. Syftet var att undersöka resultaten av benämningsförmåga och språkförståelse mätt med kortversioner av Boston Naming test (BNT30) och Token test (deltest V) samt att jämföra resultaten från denna studie med befintliga normativa data för BNT30 och Token test. Alla deltagare rekryterades ursprungligen till Linköping Screening Assessment (ELSA-85) projektet, en populationsbaserad studie med 85-åriga invånare i Linköping, Sverige. De resultat som erhållits i den aktuella studien avseende BNT30 (M = 24,71 ±3,13) och Token test (M = 4,88  ±1,05), visar på lägre resultat, med större variation, än vad som rapporteras i befintliga normativa data. Samband mellan demografiska variabler och prestation på testen undersöktes också. Data tyder på att utbildning och genus påverkar benämningsförmågan, mätt med BNT30. De normativa data från denna studie omfattar det hittills största urvalet individer över 80 år och är mer demografiskt varierade än i tidigare studier. Därför är de normer som denna studie presenterar mer representativa för kognitivt intakta 85-åringar. Dock ifrågasätter vi validiteten av den version av Token test som ingår i KSB (Kognitiva Screening Batteriet).
Well-established normative data for elderly adults is of great importance in order to distinguish between normal aging and signs of dementia. Short versions of Boston Naming test and Token test are included in screening batteries and frequently used in neuropsychological examinations. However, existing normative data for BNT30 and Token test include few individuals aged 80 years and above and are limited regarding to only include optimally healthy participants with high education level. This cross-sectional study includes 213 cognitively intact 85-year-olds. The aim was to examine their results of naming performance and language comprehension measured with short versions of Boston Naming test (BNT30) and Token test, subtest V, then to compare the results of the present study with existing normative data for BNT30 and Token test. All participants were initially recruited in the Elderly in Linköping Screening Assessment (ELSA-85) project, a population-based study of 85-year-old residents of Linköping, Sweden. The results obtained in the present study regarding BNT30 (M = 24.71 ±3.13) and Token test (M = 4.88 ±1.05), show lower test scores with greater variance than those reported in existing normative data. Association between demographic variables and performance on the tests was also examined. Data presented in the study revealed that education and gender influence naming performance measured with BNT30. The normative data gathered from this study includes the largest sample so far of individuals over the age of 80 and is more demographically diverse than in previous studies. Therefore the norms provided in this study are more representative for cognitively intact 85-year-olds. However, we question the validity of the version of Token test included in CAB (Cognitive Assessment Battery).

Abstract:
Förmågan att benämna verb och substantiv kan skilja sig åt hos såväl friska vuxna (Strauss Hough, 2007) som personer med afasi (Mätzig, Druks, Masterson & Vigliocco, 2009). Hos personer med afasi har skillnader mellan förmågan att benämna substantiv och verb relaterats till skadelokalisation (Damasio & Tranel, 1993). Vid afasiutredningar används ofta benämningstest för att bedöma framplockningen av ord (Herbert, Hickin, Howard, Osborne & Best, 2008). Action Naming Test (ANT) är ett verbbenämningstest som normerats på svenska (Lindahl & Oskarsson, 2011; Stenberg & Wik, 2013), men inte studerats hos personer med afasi. Syftet med föreliggande studie är att undersöka hur verbbenämningsförmågan ser ut hos personer med afasi och expressiva svårigheter, i relation till den svenska normeringen för ANT. Några av orden i normeringen var problematiska, varför en reanalys av data genomfördes av Stenberg och Wik (2013). Resultaten för ANT har i föreliggande studie därför jämförts med normdata framtagen före och efter reanalysen. Deltagarna bedömdes även med Boston Naming Test (BNT), eftersom studien även syftade till att undersöka om det fanns skillnader i förmåga att benämna verb och substantiv. Förutom testning med ANT och BNT besvarade deltagarna även hälsoenkäten Short Form-36 (SF–36), för att undersöka eventuella samband mellan hälsotillstånd och benämningsförmåga. I studien deltog 19 personer (41–83 år, medianålder 68 år) med kronisk afasi och expressiva svårigheter. Deltagarna presterade signifikant bättre vid benämning av verb (ANT) än av substantiv (BNT), både före (p=.007) och efter (p<.001) exkludering av de problematiska orden. De presterade under normvärdet för ANT, både före och efter ordexkluderingen, men majoriteten erhöll ett högre testresultat efter reanalysen. Inga signifikanta skillnader i benämningsförmåga relaterat till kön, ålder, utbildningsnivå eller skadelokalisation återfanns. ANT kan användas vid utredning av benämningssvårigheter vid afasi. Vid jämförelse med normdata bör värden framtagna efter reanalysen användas eftersom deltagarna i förevarande studie presterade signifikant bättre efter exkludering. Deltagarna uppvisade en signifikant skillnad i prestation på ANT och BNT, vilket motiverar att verbbenämningstest bör genomföras.
The ability to name verbs and nouns can differ in healthy adults (Strauss Hough, 2007) and in people with aphasia (Mätzig, Druks, Masterson & Vigliocco, 2009). In individuals with aphasia, differences in ability to name nouns and verbs have been related to location of brain damage (Damasio & Tranel, 1993). Confrontation naming tests are frequently used in aphasia assessments to evaluate the ability to retrieve words (Herbert, Hickin, Howard, Osborne & Best, 2008). Action Naming Test (ANT) is a verb naming test that has been standardized in Swedish (Lindahl & Oskarsson, 2011; Stenberg & Wik, 2013), but no studies have been done on verb naming with ANT in Swedish individuals with aphasia, which is the aim of the present study. Some of the words in the Swedish standardization were problematic and consequently a re-analysis of the data was conducted by Stenberg and Wik (2013). The results of the ANT in the present study were compared with collected standardized data before and after the re-analysis. To investigate whether there were differences in the ability to name verbs and nouns, participants were also assessed with the Boston Naming Test (BNT). Participants were also asked to answer the health survey Short Form-36 (SF‑36), to investigate possible links between health and verb naming ability. The study enrolled 19 subjects (41–83 years, median age 68 years) with chronic aphasia and expressive difficulties. Participants performed significantly better in verb naming (ANT) than noun naming (BNT), both before (p=.007) and after (p<.001) the problematic words were excluded. The sample performed below norm levels on ANT, both before and after the exclusion, but the majority achieved a higher test result after the re-analysis. No significant differences were found in verb naming ability related to sex, age, educational level or location of brain damage. ANT can be used to assess naming ability in people with aphasia. However, when compared with standardized data, values ​​developed after the re-analysis should be used since the participants of this study performed significantly better after exclusion. The participants showed a significantly better performance on ANT than BNT, which supports the view that verb naming tests are of value.

Abstract:
Includes abstract.
The Boston Naming Test (BNT) is a popular confrontation naming test that is frequently used in the detection of naming deficits in Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the test may not be appropriate when used outside of North America due to the influence of varying word frequency and familiarity between different cultures and languages. This study investigated the diagnostic validity of a South African 15-item adaption of the BNT (the BNT-SA-SF) in a Cape Town memory clinic population of patients with dementia and healthy, community-dwelling control participants. Between-groups comparisons, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analyses, and other diagnostic efficiency statistics were used to assess the test's discriminative capacity between patients with AD (n = 46), patients with other types of dementia (n = 23), and controls (n = 51), matched on key demographic variables. The AD group performed worse than patients with other types of dementia and controls on the BNT-SA-SF, and patients with other types of dementia scored more poorly than controls. The test showed the most significant discriminative capacity between patients with AD and controls, however. A general linear model examining the effects of socio-demographic variables on test performance found that BNT-SA-SF performance was not significantly affected by the socio-demographic characteristics of participants, including age, education, language, or socio-economic status, with the exception that men appear to achieve higher scores than women. Further, an item analysis identified a number of problematic items and suggestions are made concerning how to deal with these in future studies. Preliminary normative data stratified by sex and education are presented. Results support the clinical utility of the BNT-SA-SF as a screening test to aid in the diagnosis of AD from normal aging with older adults in South Africa. This study is a valuable step forward in the ongoing attempt to provide culturally appropriate and valid neuropsychological tests and norms for clinical and research purposes in South Africa. Future studies should examine the functioning of the test in larger samples, representative of the other major population and language groups in South Africa.

Abstract:
The Boston Naming Test (BNT) is a confrontation naming test which is used to measure naming ability. The primary purpose of this study was to identify whether cultural bias negatively affects South African’s performance on the Boston Naming Test (BNT). More specifically the study aimed to identify the exact items of the BNT on which South Africans perform poorly because of cultural bias. The research identified alternate responses given by respondents in terms of a percentage. The study further aimed to explore whether there was a significant difference in performance when comparing English, Zulu and Sotho respondents in terms of item response. This investigation also intended to discover whether being bilingual would affect South African’s performance on the BNT. Finally, the study aimed to explore whether there was a significant difference in the performance on the BNT when comparing male and female respondents. A significant difference was found between the South African and the Canadian sample in terms of item response. 40 items were revealed as problematic in a South African sample. Significant differences were found when comparing English respondents to Zulu respondents as well as when comparing Sotho respondents to English respondents. Although differences were found between male and female performance, the difference was not significant. Ultimately, no significant difference was found between monolingual and bilingual respondents.

The Boston Naming Test (BNT) is one of the most widely used tests for visual confrontation naming. This test has been adapted into different languages for children and normative data has been published; however, norms and adaptation of the BNT into Chinese for Taiwanese children has yet to be reported. The present study adapted the BNT into Chinese and collected normative data from elementary school children in Taipei. A modified 30-item BNT were administered to 516 normally developing children aged 6 to 12 from first to sixth grade from five elementary schools in Taipei. In order to evaluate the validity of this modified Chinese BNT, a subgroup of children were also administered the Raven’s Progressive Matrices (RPM) and the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test- Revised (PPVT-R), and school achievements on Chinese and Math scores were as well. Spontaneous naming was significantly different between age groups or grade levels. However, no gender differences in performance were found. In addition, older children were found to benefit more from cuing and multiple-choice options. Our modified Chinese version of BNT showed excellent validity and reliability. Performance on the BNT was found to be positively correlated with verbal intelligence but not with non-verbal intelligence. In addition, performance on our modified BNT was not significantly affected by school achievement. In sum, our modified Chinese version of the 30-item BNT was found to be a simple and brief tool that could be used as a screen for deficits in confrontation naming.

Abstract:
Background: Neuropsychological tests are important tools for the diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment or dementia due to Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Objective: To investigate the accuracy of common neuropsychological tests used in the clinical setting for AD diagnosis. Methods: Forty two patients with diagnosis of AD continuum [A+T+/-(N)+/-] and 32 non-AD [A-T+/-(N)+/-]. All participants were submitted to a thorough neuropsychological assessment with the following instruments: Mattis Dementia Rating Scale (DRS), Rey’s Auditory Verbal Learning Test (RAVLT), Boston naming-Consortium to Establish a Registry for Alzheimer’s Disease, a reduced version of the CERAD, Digit Span Forward (DSF), Digit Span Backward (DSB) and Cubes from The Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS), verbal fluency – animals (VF-A), and FAS. Results: Memory (MEM) and Initiation/Perseveration (I/P) subscales of the DRS, FAS, Digit Span Backward (DSB) and Boston naming displayed good discrimination between AD and non-AD patients. The MEM subscale of the DRS, RAVLT A6 and FAS presented high sensitivity (90% or more) for AD diagnosis, while DSF displayed high specificity. Non-AD patients had greater difficulty in FAS, DSB and in Boston naming. Conclusion: Performance of patients with biological diagnosis of AD on MEM and I/P of DRS, and RAVLT A7 was significantly different from that of non-AD subjects.
