The impact of constructional impairment on the WMS-R visual reproduction subtests

Abstract

The present study investigated the impact of constructional impairment on performance on the WMS-R Visual Reproduction subtests that measure memory for visual material. Thirteen subjects with constructional impairment had lower scores on the immediate and half-hour delayed Visual Reproduction subtests, relative to a cognitively comparable group of subjects without constructional impairment. However, the two groups did not differ with respect to their performance on the WMS-R Logical Memory subtests, which measure verbal memory. The implications of these modality specific findings among subjects with constructional impairment are discussed, and recommendations for clinicians who utilize the WMS-R are provided.
