摘要：

The Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status (RBANS, Randolph, 1998), a neuropsychological screening measure initially designed to assess the cognitive deficits associated with dementia, has since been clinically implemented with other neurological populations including traumatic brain injury ( TBI). This study evaluated the clinical utility ofthe RBANS in a TBIpopulation by comparing the profiles of 51 TBI cases and 34 non-head-injured controls. A cross RBANS' Index Scores, the TBI group performed at a significantly lower level than the controls; sensitivity to TBI and likelihood ratios ranged from modest to strong; and specificity was high. Particularly efficacious was the clinical efficiency exhibited by the Total Scale Index (summary score) of the RBANS.
