Abstract

Neuropsychologists have long understood that valid examinee performance is needed in order to understand the constructs of interest that are at the heart of clinical and forensic evaluations. The assessment of performance validity has evolved over time, from very rudimentary and subjective clinical impressions of examinee task engagement to psychometrically based, multi-method, algorithm-driven, and consensus-informed approaches. Christoph Leonhard has further advanced that evolution in a meaningful way, forcing us to reconsider much of what we thought we knew about the psychometric assessment of performance validity. Although a structured, systematic, and objective approach to validity assessment is necessary, Leonhard has brought to our attention some significant concerns that need to be addressed. This commentary describes professional, ethical, and legal implications of Leonhard's articles. Through an ongoing process of examining, revising, and improving our methods and procedures, we will be better positioned to provide services of value to those we serve. Leonhard has provided an opportunity for us to do just that.

质疑我们所知道的:Leonhard绩效有效性评估文章述评。
神经心理学家早就明白,为了理解临床和法医评估的核心感兴趣的结构,需要有效的受试者表现。随着时间的推移,绩效有效性的评估已经从对受试者任务参与的非常基本和主观的临床印象发展到基于心理测量、多方法、算法驱动和共识知情的方法。Christoph Leonhard以一种有意义的方式进一步推动了这一进化,迫使我们重新考虑我们所认为的关于表现有效性的心理测量评估的许多内容。尽管有必要采用结构化、系统化和客观的方法进行有效性评估,但Leonhard已经提请我们注意一些需要解决的重大问题。这篇评论描述了Leonhard文章的职业、道德和法律含义。通过不断审查、修订和改进我们的方法和程序,我们将能够更好地为我们所服务的人提供有价值的服务。莱昂哈德为我们提供了一个这样做的机会。

期刊介绍: Neuropsychology Review is a quarterly, refereed publication devoted to integrative review papers on substantive content areas in neuropsychology, with particular focus on populations with endogenous or acquired conditions affecting brain and function and on translational research providing a mechanistic understanding of clinical problems. Publication of new data is not the purview of the journal. Articles are written by international specialists in the field, discussing such complex issues as distinctive functional features of central nervous system disease and injury; challenges in early diagnosis; the impact of genes and environment on function; risk factors for functional impairment; treatment efficacy of neuropsychological rehabilitation; the role of neuroimaging, neuroelectrophysiology, and other neurometric modalities in explicating function; clinical trial design; neuropsychological function and its substrates characteristic of normal development and aging; and neuropsychological dysfunction and its substrates in neurological, psychiatric, and medical conditions. The journal''s broad perspective is supported by an outstanding, multidisciplinary editorial review board guided by the aim to provide students and professionals, clinicians and researchers with scholarly articles that critically and objectively summarize and synthesize the strengths and weaknesses in the literature and propose novel hypotheses, methods of analysis, and links to other fields.
