If selected, the subtest-level differences for IMI will be included in the report.

This table includes the subtest scaled score, mean scaled score for the IMI, difference (subtest scaled score - mean scaled score), critical value, and base rate for the four subtests (Adult Battery) or three subtests (Older Adult Battery) within the IMI.

Note: If CVLT-II scores are substituted in place of the Verbal Paired Associates scores, this report option is not available.

Subtest-level differences within DMI

If selected, the subtest-level differences for DMI will be included in the report.

This table includes the subtest scaled score, mean scaled score for the DMI, difference (subtest scaled score - mean scaled score), critical value, and base rate for the four subtests (Adult Battery) or three subtests (Older Adult Battery) within the DMI.

Note: If CVLT-II scores are substituted in place of the Verbal Paired Associates scores, this report option is not available.

Subtest discrepancy comparison

If selected, subtest discrepancy comparisons are done between Spatial Addition and Symbol Span (for the Adult battery) and Visual Reproduction I and Visual Reproduction II (for the Older Adult battery) and included in the report.

This table includes the difference, critical value (.05 or .15), and base rate.

Confidence Intervals

90% or 95%

Significance Levels

.05 or .15

Subtest discrepancy comparison

.05 or .15

Subtest-Level Contrast Scaled Scores

This table includes the two subtest scaled scores and/or process scores being compared and the contrast scaled score for each comparison within Logical Memory.

Verbal Paired Associates contrast scaled scores

If selected, the Verbal Paired Associates Contrast Scaled Scores table will be included in the report.

This table includes the two subtest scaled scores and/or process scores being compared and the contrast scaled score for each comparison within Verbal Paired Associates.

Note: If CVLT-II scores are chosen in place of the Verbal Paired Associates I and II scores, this table is suppressed.

Designs contrast scaled scores

If selected, the Design Contrast Scaled Scores table will be included in the report.

This table includes the two subtest scaled scores and/or process scores being compared and the contrast scaled score for each comparison within Designs.
