Study Notes
Purpose of CLQT
- Assesses five cognitive domains: attention, memory, language, executive functions, and visuospatial skills in adults with neurological dysfunction.
- Provides an overall measure of cognitive-linguistic function, identifying strengths and weaknesses.
- Results help guide further observations and in-depth assessments rather than serving as a definitive diagnostic tool.
Personal Factors
- Evaluates episodic memory, orientation to time and place, and communication abilities.
- Focus on memory (episodic) and language (word retrieval, comprehension, and production).
Symbol Cancellation
- Designed to assess visual attention, scanning, discrimination, inhibition, and response shifting.
- Evaluates attention and visuospatial skills through visual perceptual tasks.
Confrontation Naming
- Identifies anomia, a common difficulty in retrieving specific words associated with aphasia.
- Focuses on language, specifically semantics and phonology.
Clock Drawing
- Quick assessment tool for tracking spontaneous recovery, rehabilitation progress, or declines due to neurological diseases.
- Sensitive to overall brain function, integrating all cognitive domains.
Clock Drawing: Cognitive Domains Evaluated
- Sustained attention and planning required for a multi-step task.
- Working memory for maintaining task goals and procedural memory.
- Executive functions for planning and monitoring.
- Language skills for understanding instructions and numeric retrieval.
- Visuospatial skills for accurate representation.
Story Retelling
- Assesses working memory for facts in a narrative, auditory processing, and verbal production.
- Evaluates domains including attention, memory (verbal working memory), and language.
Symbol Trials
- Evaluates executive functions such as working memory, planning, and mental flexibility without significant language demands.
- Covers attention, executive functions, and visuospatial skills.
Generative Naming
- Tests ability to systematically search for words based on semantic and phonological rules.
- Requires working memory to remember task rules and previously named words.
Generative Naming: Cognitive Domains Evaluated
- Working memory capabilities.
- Language skills related to semantics and phonology.
- Involvement of executive functions.
Design Memory
- Assesses immediate and working visual memory with minimal reliance on language.
- Target areas include visual attention, visual memory, and visuospatial skills.
Mazes
- Evaluates executive functions with low language demands; requires planning, inhibition of incorrect choices, and error correction.
- Assesses attention and visuospatial abilities.
Mazes: Cognitive Domains Evaluated
- Attention skills.
- Executive functions related to planning and error correction.
- Visuospatial skills.
Design Generation
- Assesses executive skills in creativity, productivity, rapid response variation, self-monitoring, and rule following.
- Minimal language requirements for task completion.
Design Generation: Cognitive Domains Evaluated
- Attention-focused tasks.
- Executive functions related to creativity and monitoring.
- Visuospatial skills for design tasks.
