Abstract

Purpose: Naming difficulty is associated with temporal lobe epilepsy and a decline in naming ability is reported following dominant temporal lobe resections. The Boston Naming Test (BNT) is the most frequently used test for assessing naming ability. Evaluating naming ability in bilingual/multilingual populations is a challenge when participants are restricted to responding in one language. The study aimed to adapt and standardize the BNT as a valid clinical tool for evaluating bilingual/multilingual people undergoing epilepsy surgery in urban India.

Results: Culture-appropriate adaptations were done, and participants were allowed to respond in any language. Data from 197 participants showed a strong education effect. The adaptation showed strong internal consistency, reliability, construct validity, and high sensitivity to left temporal lobe epilepsy performance.

Conclusions: The adapted version that allowed for flexible use of more than one language is a useful clinical tool for evaluating bilingual people undergoing epilepsy surgery.

对接受癫痫手术的双语患者进行命名评估--波士顿命名测试在印度的适应性和标准化。

目的：命名困难与颞叶癫痫有关，有报告称显性颞叶切除术后命名能力下降。波士顿命名测验（BNT）是评估命名能力最常用的测验。如果受试者只能用一种语言进行回答，那么在双语/多语人群中评估命名能力就是一项挑战。本研究旨在对 BNT 进行改编和标准化，使其成为评估印度城市接受癫痫手术的双语/多语人群的有效临床工具：结果：进行了与文化相适应的调整，参与者可以用任何一种语言进行回答。来自 197 名参与者的数据显示了强烈的教育效应。改编后的问卷显示出很强的内部一致性、可靠性和建构效度，并且对左颞叶癫痫的表现高度敏感：经过改编的版本允许灵活使用一种以上的语言，是评估接受癫痫手术的双语患者的有用临床工具。
