The current investigation sought to explore the psychometric properties of the HVOT and develop normative data for South Africans who do not speak English as a first language and who received primary and secondary public education. The research design was cross-sectional and the HVOT was administered to healthy adults (n = 111) and a clinical group (n = 17) whose ages ranged between 19 and 70 years and had an education of between 6 and 22 years. The clinical group was made up of Huntington’s Disease patients (HD/HDL2). Reliability indicators (McDonald’s omega and Rasch person reliability index) were satisfactory. The HVOT fit the Rasch model well, although item locations deviated somewhat from the expected monotonic increase in item difficulties. Statistically significant differences in total scores were observed across age, education and gender groups, forming the basis of the norms presented in this paper. A few items across these groups were flagged for potential differential item functioning. Several statistically significant associations with the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MOCA) were observed. These were consistent with theoretical expectations and provided evidence of convergent validity. The clinical group performed worse than the control group when mean total HVOT scores were compared. Preliminary norms stratified by age, gender and years of education are presented. Future studies should include larger sample sizes and additional research on the influence of gender on the total HVOT score is needed.","PeriodicalId":34043,"journal":{"name":"African Journal of Psychological Assessment","volume":"35 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73560053","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aimed to determine the reliability, minimum detectable change (MDC) and sociodemographic biases of selected NP tests among PLWHIV. The study took place at the HIV clinic of the University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital, Enugu. A total of 60 PLWHIV were randomly recruited into two groups of 30 each. The first group was evaluated by two independent examiners (inter-rater) and the other by a single rater (intra-rater). The NP tests utilised included the Hopkins Verbal Learning Test-Revised (HVLT-R), controlled oral word association test (COWAT), Trail Making Test-A (TMT-A) and -B (TMT-B), Digit Span Test-forward (DST-f) and -backward (DST-b). We examined agreement using intra-class correlation (ICC), standard error of measurement and MDC. We verified the influence of sociodemographic variables on test performance using Man–Whitney U-test and Kruskal–Wallis test. The HVLT-R- delay recall (DR), TMT-A, TMT-B and COWAT showed excellent inter-rater reliability with ICC values of 0.83, 0.86, 0.78 and 0.89, respectively. The HVLT-R- verbal learning (VL), DST-f and DST-b showed moderate inter-rater reliability with ICCs of 0.4.99, 0.52 and 0.60, respectively. The HVLT-R-DR, TMT-A, DST-b and COWAT showed excellent intra-rater reliability, with ICCs values of 0.76, 0.80, 0.84 and 0.97, respectively. The TMT-A, DST-f and DST-b were free from sociodemographic bias. The HVLT-R-DR, TMT-A, TMT-B, DST-f, DST-b and COWAT are reliable candidate NP tests for PLWHIV in our setting.","PeriodicalId":34043,"journal":{"name":"African Journal of Psychological Assessment","volume":"15 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77678569","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The research focussed on (1) whether the factor structure of the inventory manifested similarly for younger and older adolescents and whether this structure matched that found for adults and (2) whether the scales of the BTI yield scores with similar reliabilities for adolescents of different ages and whether these reliabilities match those found for adults. Results demonstrate the replicability of the theoretical five-factor structure of the BTI amongst younger and older adolescents and evidence that the scales yield scores with high reliability. Overall, the results show that the BTI holds promise as a measure of the personality traits of the Big Five model amongst adolescents in the South African context.","PeriodicalId":34043,"journal":{"name":"African Journal of Psychological Assessment","volume":"42 6 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76366121","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The relevance of the construct of optimism in health psychology has been convincingly demonstrated in numerous studies. Optimism has been associated with differences in mental and physical health, quality of life, adaptive coping styles, life satisfaction, recovery after severe illness and mortality (cf. Hinz et al., 2017, p. 162, for a summary), and has been linked to a range of biological markers and pain responses (cf. Schou-Bredala et al., 2017, p. 217, for a summary). Pertinent to the context of this article, its association with markers of mental health and psychological well-being (e.g. depression, anxiety, fatigue, self-efficacy, perceived stress) has been established in various cross-continental contexts (Yew, Lim, Haw, & Gan, 2015; Zenger et al., 2013; also cf.
