ABSTRACT

A total of normal 984 adult subjects were evaluated with Luria Nebraska Neuropsychological Battery – LNNB (Portuguese Experimental Version – Maia, 2006). They were randomly selected from the Portuguese population that voluntarily accepted to take part in this project. All subjects selected had right hand specialization and were Caucasian. The age range was selected following the usual procedures in Portugal (18 old – 65 old, with average = 36, 87 and S.D. 12,972). The average value for years in school was 15, 13 and s.d = 4,005. The major results of tests were evaluated having as grouping factors the age, sex and scholar level. The analysis of data with Chi Square test, T tests, and Anova showed great consistency with results around the world about the internal consistency of LNNB in strongly discriminating normal subject from neuropsychological affected patients. Finally, the first Portuguese normative data about LNNB -in an experimental phase, with almost a thousand participants were presented. We believe that this article could be of great value to those who are involved in neuropsychological assessment and are mainly concerned with the viability of the overabundance of cognitive tests mostly used to adequately evaluate normal and abnormal neuropsychological performance.
