Abstract

The present study describes the development of a simplified complex figure for older adults. This new figure is based on theoretical organizational strategy models developed for the Rey Complex Figure Test and combines several new technologies for the enhancement of the data capture. The study shows that the accuracy and memory scores for the new measure correlate significantly with Trail Making Test, Five Point Test, and RBANS Complex Figure scores. The new figure’s strategy scores correlate with predominantly nonverbal and to a lesser extent with verbal executive functions, supporting the construct validity of these scores and illustrating that computer-based data recording methodologies can reliably discern the multiple cognitive operations that impact performance on this and similar graphomotor measures.
