Background
The BADS stands for?
What is Behavioural Assessment of Dysexecutive Syndrome.
What is predict everyday problems arising from Dysexecutive Syndrome
The Rule Shift Cards Test measures consist of?
What is time taken and number of errors.
What is 0 to 4 where 4 represents optimal performance.
The BADS assessment kit is located here?
What is the cognitive assessment cupboard in 5th floor rehab gym.
True or False: The BADS is made up of a battery of tests.
The BADS is standardized for this age range?
What is 16 - 87.
The Action Program Test requires these materials to administer?
2) container
3) wire hook
4) test base with tub and cork and beaker and lid
5) water
6) paper towel
7) stopwatch
The total profile score is obtained by doing what?
Summing all 6 individual sub-tests, giving a maximum range of 0 to 24.
The caveats to administering individual subtests from the BADS are?
What is:
- You cannot calculate the full BADS profile score which combines all 6 subtests into a standardized score.
- If using for diagnostic purposes (which we cannot do), you cannot make a definitive diagnosis.
- Want to pair with at least the DEX questionnaire to maximize ecological validity.
What year was the BADS made?
1996
The BADS is made up of these many tests and questionnaires.
What is 6 tests, and 1 questionnaire.
The development of the Key Search Test was influenced by a task in what other assessment?
What is the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale.
Is the DEX factored into the BADS profile score?
True or False: the BADS is a cross cultural measure?
False. The BADS was originally standardized on UK middle class population. The BADS is not strongly considered to be cross cultural. While designed to be ecologically valid by simulating real world planning and problem solving, its heavy reliance on Western, industrialized norms requires careful, localized adaptation.
Dysexecutive Syndrome is?
What is a cluster of impairments generally associated with damage to the frontal lobes of the brain. These impairments include difficulties with high-level tasks such as planning, organizing, initiating, monitoring and adapting behavior.
The 6 tests are?
What is
1) Rule Shift Cards Test
2) Action Program Test
3) Key Search Test
4) Temporal Judgement Test
5) Zoo Map Test
6) Modified Six Elements Test
What is:
Patients who score low on the Action Program test, may have challenges doing what types of functional activities?
What is have challenges with executing multi-step chores, adapting to novel situations, and task sequencing.
The BADS is appropriate for these types of populations?
What is TBI, frontal lobe damage, detecting early executive deficits like schizophrenia and Alzheimer's.
The DEX Questionnaire is completed by who?
The Zoo Map Test consists of this many trials.
2
The test-retest reliability of the BADS is not necessarily considered high due to what reason?
Discussion Question: Is this assessment appropriate for the acute care setting?
Group discussion.
