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.

Abstract:

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:

AbstractIndividuals aged over 80 years represent the fastest growing segment of the population. It is becoming increasingly important to investigate the effect of age on cognitive functions such as language, in order to document “normal” and “abnormal” functioning. A task commonly used to test naming ability in clinical practice is the Boston Naming Test (BNT). Although norms exist for this age group, they may have limited applications because of small sample sizes on which they were derived. In addition, this test uses stimulus items that have been shown to be culturally specific. This study presents normative data for the BNT for two levels of education and two age bands based on a randomly selected Australian sample of older adults between the age of 81 and 94 years. Frequencies of the most common error types made in this group of nondemented individuals are also reported.

Abstract:

AbstractObjectives: We examined performance on the Boston Naming Test (BNT) in older and younger adults who were monolingual English or French speakers, or bilingual speakers of English and French (n=215). Methods: Monolingual participants completed the task in their native language, and bilingual participants completed the task in English, French, and bilingual (either-language) administrations. Results: Overall, younger and older monolingual French speakers performed worse than other groups; bilingual participants performed worst in the French administration and approximately two-thirds of bilingual participants performed better when responses were accepted in either language. Surprisingly, however, a subset of bilinguals performed worse when responses were accepted in either language as compared to their maximum score achieved in either English or French. This either-language disadvantage does not appear to be associated with the degree of balanced bilingualism, but instead appears to be related to overall naming abilities. Differential item analysis comparing language groups and the different administrations identified several items that displayed uniform and/or non-uniform differential item functioning (DIF). Conclusions: The BNT does not elicit equivalent performance in English and French, even when assessing naming performance in monolingual French speakers using the French version of the test. Scores were lower in French overall, and several items exhibited DIF. We recommend caution in interpreting performance on these items in bilingual speakers. Finally, not all bilinguals benefit from an either-language administration of the BNT. (JINS, 2015, 21, 350–363)

Abstract:

OBJECTIVES: Patients that undergo epilepsy surgery for temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) in the dominant hemisphere are more susceptible to naming deficits. The aim of the present study was to perform an observational retrospective study comparing two groups of patients for naming performance, those with left and right temporal lobe resections regarding the performance in naming by Boston Naming Test (BNT). METHODS: A total of 120 right-handed patients (52 right temporal lobe and 68 left temporal lobe), aged between 18 and 59, with pharmacoresistant mesial TLE were retrospectively analyzed. All patients underwent pre and postoperative neuropsychological assessment. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS : The BNT was a good predictor for possible post-surgical language deficits in patients submitted to left temporal lobectomy.

Abstract:

In the field of psychology, determining the psychological condition of a person’s can be done using various types of tests. Neuropsychology test is a battery test that means every person should be taken 11 test in a moment. Each test has a different objective, as an example, The Boston Naming test is used to measure a person's ability in the language domain. The data stored for each data in the Boston Naming Test (BNT) is around 130 fields. Each test has different specific data. This makes the data grow rapidly and requires a database design that can accommodate this need.There are many approaches can be done to store the database such a relational database and NoSQL database. When the data are stored using relational methods and amount of data are large, there can be a lack of time in both processing and tracking. This article proposes a system to store the result of the neuropsychological test using the NoSQL database approach with sample data in subtest BNT.

Abstract:

Background and Purpose: The factors associated with recovery of language domains after stroke remain uncertain. We described recovery of overall-language-ability, auditory comprehension, naming, and functional-communication across participants’ age, sex, and aphasia chronicity in a large, multilingual, international aphasia dataset. Methods: Individual participant data meta-analysis of systematically sourced aphasia datasets described overall-language ability using the Western Aphasia Battery Aphasia-Quotient; auditory comprehension by Aachen Aphasia Test (AAT) Token Test; naming by Boston Naming Test and functional-communication by AAT Spontaneous-Speech Communication subscale. Multivariable analyses regressed absolute score-changes from baseline across language domains onto covariates identified a priori in randomized controlled trials and all study types. Change-from-baseline scores were presented as estimates of means and 95% CIs. Heterogeneity was described using relative variance. Risk of bias was considered at dataset and meta-analysis level. Results: Assessments at baseline (median=43.6 weeks poststroke; interquartile range [4–165.1]) and first-follow-up (median=10 weeks from baseline; interquartile range [3–26]) were available for n=943 on overall-language ability, n=1056 on auditory comprehension, n=791 on naming and n=974 on functional-communication. Younger age (<55 years, +15.4 Western Aphasia Battery Aphasia-Quotient points [CI, 10.0–20.9], +6.1 correct on AAT Token Test [CI, 3.2–8.9]; +9.3 Boston Naming Test points [CI, 4.7–13.9]; +0.8 AAT Spontaneous-Speech Communication subscale points [CI, 0.5–1.0]) and enrollment <1 month post-onset (+19.1 Western Aphasia Battery Aphasia-Quotient points [CI, 13.9–24.4]; +5.3 correct on AAT Token Test [CI, 1.7–8.8]; +11.1 Boston Naming Test points [CI, 5.7–16.5]; and +1.1 AAT Spontaneous-Speech Communication subscale point [CI, 0.7–1.4]) conferred the greatest absolute change-from-baseline across each language domain. Improvements in language scores from baseline diminished with increasing age and aphasia chronicity. Data exhibited no significant statistical heterogeneity. Risk-of-bias was low to moderate-low. Conclusions: Earlier intervention for poststroke aphasia was crucial to maximize language recovery across a range of language domains, although recovery continued to be observed to a lesser extent beyond 6 months poststroke.

Abstract:

A picture naming task, the Boston Naming Test, originally developed for spoken language, has been adapted to Italian Sign Language in order to assess the vocabulary of Italian deaf signing children. Thirty deaf and thirty hearing children and adolescents (aged 6–14 years) participated in the study. In the deaf signing group, half of the children attended a bilingual school. Results show no significant differences between deaf and hearing participants in the number of correct responses provided, but do show interesting differences in the lexical accuracy observed for individual items and in error types reported for sign and speech. In the deaf group, children attending a bilingual school performed significantly better than those who did not attend a bilingual programme.

Abstract:

Background: Auditory naming tests are superior to visual confrontation naming tests in revealing word-finding difficulties in many neuropathological conditions. Objective: To delineate characteristics of auditory naming most likely to reveal anomia in patients with dementia, and possibly improve diagnostic utility, we evaluated a large sample of patients referred with memory impairment complaints. Methods: Patients with dementia (N = 733) or other cognitive impairments and normal individuals (N = 69) were evaluated for frequency of impairment on variables of the Auditory Naming Test (ANT) of Hamberger & Seidel versus the Boston Naming Test (BNT). Results: Naming impairment occurred more frequently using the ANT total score (φ= 0.41) or ANT tip-of-the tongue score (TOT; φ= 0.19) but not ANT mean response time compared to the BNT in patients with dementia (p < 0.001). Significantly more patients were impaired on ANT variables than on the BNT in Alzheimer’s disease (AD), vascular dementia (VaD), mixed AD/VaD, and multiple domain mild cognitive impairment (mMCI) but not in other dementias or amnestic MCI (aMCI). This differential performance of patients on auditory versus visual naming tasks was most pronounced in older, well-educated, male patients with the least cognitive impairment. Impaired verbal comprehension was not contributory. Inclusion of an ANT index score increased sensitivity in the dementia sample (92%). Poor specificity (41%) may be secondary to the inherent limitation of using the BNT as a control variable. Conclusion: The ANT index score adds diagnostic utility to the assessment of naming difficulties in patients with suspected dementia.

Abstract:

Abstract Objective The Boston Naming Test (BNT) has recently been proposed as an embedded performance validity test (PVT) with high specificity/low sensitivity; however, this has not been replicated. This study therefore aimed to cross-validate findings in a mixed clinical neuropsychiatric sample. Method This cross-sectional study of 136 primary monolingual English-speaking patients who completed the BNT during outpatient evaluation was 57% female/43% male, 38% Caucasian, 39% African American, 16% Hispanic, and 6% Asian with mean age of 47.7 years (SD = 16.6) and mean education of 14.0 years (SD = 2.7). In total, 109/136 (80%) were classified as valid and 27/136 (20%) as invalid based on 4 independent criterion PVTs. Results Respective mean BNT raw/T-scores were 49.5 (SD = 9.2)/45.3 (SD = 10.9) for the valid group and 45.8 (SD = 8.2)/41.1 (SD = 7.8) for the invalid group. Analyses of variance fell just above significance for both BNT raw F(1, 134) = 3.75, p = .05 and T-scores F(1, 134) = 3.55, p = .06. Receiver operator characteristic curve analysis for the raw score was significant, with an area under the curve (AUC) of .67 (p < .01) and an optimal cutoff of ≤ 35 (4% specificity/90% sensitivity). BNT raw scores remained significant after removing bilingual participants, (AUC = .68; p < .01), with identical psychometric properties. In contrast, analysis of BNT T-scores (AUC = .61; p = .08) were nonsignificant. Conclusions Overall, results showed that the BNT cannot psychometrically distinguish valid versus invalid performance and therefore has questionable utility as a PVT in a mixed clinical setting. Findings contribute to a growing literature base cautioning against the indiscriminate use of measures of actual cognitive ability as validity indicators, particularly in populations with cognitive impairment.
