    Newly developed Learning and Verbal Memory Test (TAMV-I): Normative data for Spanish-speaking pediatric population
    (IOS Press, 2017) Aguilar Rivera, Daniel; Olabarrieta Landa, L.; Rabago Barajas, B.; Irías Escher, Maria; Saracostti Schwartzman, Mahia; Ferrer Cascales, R.; Martín Lobo, Pilar; Calderón, J.; Aguilar Uriarte, M.; Peñalver Guia, Ana Ivis; Camlla Ynga, R.; García Guerrero, Cristina Elizabeth; Fernandez Agis, Inmaculada; García Gómez Pastrana, A.; Ibáñez Alfonso, Joaquín; Gómez, H.; Galarza del Angel, Javier; Garcia de la Cadena, Claudia; Arango Lasprilla, Juan Carlos
    OBJECTIVE: To generate normative data for the Learning and Verbal Memory Test (TAMV-I) in Spanish-speaking pediatric populations. METHOD: The sample consisted of 4,373 healthy children from nine countries in Latin America (Chile, Cuba, Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Paraguay, Peru, and Puerto Rico) and Spain. Each participant was administered the TAMV-I as part of a larger neuropsychological battery. Free recall, memory delay and recognition scores were normed using multiple linear regressions and standard deviations of residual values. Age, age 2, sex, and mean level of parental education (MLPE) were included as predictors in the analyses. RESULTS: The final multiple linear regression models indicated main effects for age on all scores, such that scores increased linearly as a function of age. Age 2 had a significant effect in all countries except Cuba, and Puerto Rico for free recall score; a significant effect for memory delay score in all countries except Cuba and Puerto Rico; and a significant effect for recognition score in in all countries except Guatemala, Honduras, and Puerto Rico. Models showed an effect for MLPE in Chile (free recall), Honduras (free recall), Mexico (free recall), Puerto Rico (free recall, memory delay, and recognition), and Spain (free recall and memory delay). Sex affected free recall score for Cuba, Ecuador, Guatemala, Mexico, Paraguay, Peru, and Spain, memory delay score for all countries except Chile, Paraguay, and Puerto Rico, and recognition score for Ecuador, Mexico, Peru, and Spain, with girls scoring higher than boys. CONCLUSIONS: This is the largest Spanish-speaking pediatric normative study in the world, and it will allow neuropsychologists from these countries to have a more accurate way to interpret the TAMV-I with pediatric populations. © 2017 - IOS Press and the authors.

    Verbal fluency tests: Normative data for Spanish-speaking pediatric population
    (IOS Press, 2017) Olabarrieta Landa, L.; Aguilar Rivera, Daniel; Lara, Laura; Rute Pérez, Sandra; Rodríguez Lorenzana, Alberto; Galarza del Angel, Javier; Peñalver Guia, Ana Ivis; Ferrer Cascales, R.; Velázquez Cardoso, J.; Campos Varillas, A.; Ramos Usuga, D.; Chino Vilca, B.; Aguilar Uriarte, M.; Martín Lobo, Pilar; Garcia de la Cadena, Claudia; Postigo Alonso, B.; Romero García, I.; Rabago Barajas, B.; Irías Escher, Maria; Arango Lasprilla, Juan Carlos
    OBJECTIVE: To generate normative data for the phonological and semantic verbal fluency tests (VFT) in Spanish-speaking pediatric populations. METHOD: The sample consisted of 4,373 healthy children from nine countries in Latin America (Chile, Cuba, Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Paraguay, Peru, and Puerto Rico) and Spain. Each participant was administered the VFT as part of a larger neuropsychological battery. Scores for letters F, A, S, and animals and fruit categories were normed using multiple linear regressions and standard deviations of residual values. Age, age 2, sex, and mean level of parental education (MLPE) were included as predictors in the analyses. RESULTS: The final multiple linear regression models showed main effects for age on all scores, such that scores increased linearly as a function of age. Age 2 had a significant effect in Chile (animals), Cuba (A letter, fruits), Ecuador (animals, fruits), Honduras (F letter), Mexico (animals, fruits), Peru (fruits), and Spain (S letters, animals, fruits). Models showed an effect for MLPE in Chile (A letters, animals, fruits), Ecuador (S letter, animals, fruits), Guatelama (F, S letter, animals), Honduras (animals), Mexico (F, A, S letters, animals, fruits), Puerto Rico (A, letters, animals), and Spain (all scores). Sex scores were found significant in Chile (animals), Ecuador (A letter, fruits), Mexico (F letter, fruits), Paraguay (F, A, S letters, fruits), Puerto Rico (F letter, animals, fruits), and Spain (F letter, fruits). CONCLUSIONS: This is the largest multi-national Spanish speaking-pediatric normative study in the world, and as such it will allow neuropsychologists from these countries to have a more accurate way to interpret the phonological and semantic VFT in pediatric populations. © 2017 - IOS Press and the authors.
