Mayo's Older Americans Normative Studies: Visual Form Discrimination and copy trial of the Rey-Osterrieth Complex Figure

J Clin Exp Neuropsychol. 2007 May;29(4):377-84. doi: 10.1080/13803390600726803.

Abstract

Age-adjusted normative data are presented for persons age 70-89 years for the Visual Form Discrimination Test and Rey-Osterrieth Complex Figure (copy trial only). Adjustment for the effect of education on test performance is also provided. These data were collected as part of Mayo's Older Americans Normative Studies (MOANS). The normative information provided here should prove useful for characterizing performance on these measures as well as comparing the person's performance against his or her functioning on any other test with MOANS norms. Limitations and unique features of the MOANS normative data are also discussed.
