Abstract
To replicate previous research on the forced choice recognition trial for the California Verbal Learning Test—Children’s Version (FCR-C). Classification accuracy of the FCR-C was computed in 178 children referred for neuropsychological assessment to a tertiary care hospital. FCR-C ≤ 14 produced the best combination of sensitivity (.12–.42) and specificity (.88–.96). Unlike some of the criterion performance validity tests (PVTs), base rate of failure on the FCR-C was evenly distributed across age ranges. The FCR-C is a quick and inexpensive PVT, unaffected by cognitive maturation, and highly specific to psychometrically defined invalid performance.
