摘要: The utility of the Word Fluency Test, Wisconsin Card-Sorting and a shorter form Categories Test as screening instruments for detecting frontal lobe dysfunction in neuropsychiatric setting was examined. On basis clinical neurological examination, patients were assigned to one three groups: injured, brain impaired excluding areas, psychiatric with no evidence dysfunctioning.
