Abstract
Use of Warrington's Recognition Memory Test (RMT) for the detection of response bias and malingering is evaluated. The RMT's psychometric characteristics are reviewed. A method for using the RMT to detect response bias is presented: determining the probability of obtaining specific RMT scores; comparing the individual patient's RMT scores with group data from patients with established neurologic disorders; combining RMT data with other test data; integrating injury characteristics and psychosocial factors with RMT scores; and use of prevalence rates with the RMT. RMT data from a sample 90 persons with acute traumatic brain injury, stratified by injury severity, are presented to provide clinical benchmarks. The evidentiary reliability of the RMT is also discussed in light of Daubert factors.
