The Camden Memory Tests consist of 5 new measures. Each test was
developed to fulfil a clinical need that was not met by existing
memory tests and they are intended to be used separately. The
Pictorial Recognition Memory Test is an exceptionally easy test
that can provide useful clinical information in the assessment of
patients unable to cope with the demands of more difficult tests.
It can also be used to identify subjects who are 'faking' memory
disorders. The Topographical Recognition Memory Test provides a
culture-free measure of visual memory that is a useful alternative
to the more commonly used Recognition Memory Test for faces. The
Paired-Associate Learning Test provides a more satisfactory measure
of verbal recall and verbal learning than is at present available.
The Short Recognition Memory Test for Words and The Short
Recognition Memory Test for Faces were both developed to provide a
short and quick version of the standard Recognition Memory Test
with only the minimum loss of discriminative power. Each of the 5
individual tests has been standardised in a large representative
cross section of an urban population including subjects between the
ages of 70 and 85. Validation studies are presented. The localising
power of the Topographical Recognition Memory Test and the
Paired-Associate Learning Test has been established by assessing
patients with unilateral cerebral lesions and the discriminative
power of the Short Recognition Memory Test for Words and for Faces
has been established by assessing patients with dementing
illnesses.
