Abstract
Examined inter-rater reliability of the scoring of the Figure Copy and Recall subtest of the Adult Memory and Information Processing Battery (AMIPB; Coughlan & Hollows, 1985). Figure Copy and Recall tests of 56 individuals referred for neuropsychological assessment were independently scored by three experienced neuropsychologists and the scores correlated. Detailed analysis of reasons for scoring discrepancies was carried out. Raters scores were highly correlated in relation to both forms of the tests. The major source of discrepancy was errors in accuracy. Results indicate that the AMIPB manual instructions are sufficiently detailed to obtain good inter-rater reliability when the raters are experienced clinicians. Further research using trainees or assistant psychologists is suggested.
