Abstract

Background: The Test of Memory Malingering (TOMM) is a widely used performance validity measure that is available in both English and Spanish. The Spanish version, however, has historically lacked normative data from samples that are representative of the U.S. Hispanic/Spanish speaking population.

Objective: The aim of the current study was to collect normative data on the update TOMM 2 for Hispanic individuals residing in the U.S.

Methods: Normative data on the TOMM 2 was collected across 9 sites from different regions of the U.S. The total sample consisted of n = 188 cognitively healthy adults aged 18 and over with no current or prior history of neurological or psychiatric disorder. Descriptive analyses were performed on total raw scores.

Results: Participants obtained a mean score of 48.15 (SD = 2.81) on trial 1 of the TOMM 2, 49.86 (SD = 0.487) on trial 2, and 49.84 (SD = 0.509) on the recognition trial. Scores are provided for traditional cutoff scores as well as some popular cutoffs reported in the literature. Item level analyses were conducted as well as evaluation of performance based on a variety of demographics.

Conclusion: When compared to the English-speaking normative sample used for the original TOMM, this sample demonstrated better performance on the TOMM 2 indicating better cultural appropriateness of the items. This is the first study conducted that provides culturally appropriate descriptive norms for use with Spanish speakers living in the U.S.

在美国讲西班牙语的人中对 TOMM2 进行初步测试。
背景:记忆错觉测试(TOMM)是一种广泛使用的成绩效度测量方法,有英语和西班牙语两种版本。然而,西班牙语版本历来缺乏来自美国西语/西班牙语人口代表性样本的常模数据:本研究的目的是为居住在美国的西班牙裔个人收集更新版 TOMM 2 的标准数据:总样本包括 n = 188 名认知健康的成年人,年龄在 18 岁及以上,目前或之前没有神经或精神疾病史。对原始总分进行了描述性分析:参加者在TOMM 2测试1中获得的平均分为48.15分(标准差=2.81),在测试2中获得的平均分为49.86分(标准差=0.487),在识别测试中获得的平均分为49.84分(标准差=0.509)。我们提供了传统截止分数以及文献中报道的一些常用截止分数。我们还进行了项目层面的分析,以及基于各种人口统计数据的成绩评估:与最初的 TOMM 所使用的英语常模样本相比,该样本在 TOMM 2 中的表现更好,表明项目的文化适宜性更高。这是第一项为居住在美国的西班牙语使用者提供文化适宜性描述性标准的研究。

期刊介绍: NeuroRehabilitation, an international, interdisciplinary, peer-reviewed journal, publishes manuscripts focused on scientifically based, practical information relevant to all aspects of neurologic rehabilitation. We publish unsolicited papers detailing original work/research that covers the full life span and range of neurological disabilities including stroke, spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury, neuromuscular disease and other neurological disorders. We also publish thematically organized issues that focus on specific clinical disorders, types of therapy and age groups. Proposals for thematic issues and suggestions for issue editors are welcomed.
