Abstract
The Hopkins Verbal Learning Test-Revised (HVLT-R) is a memory test commonly used in neuropsychological evaluations, but for which there are currently no normative data for elderly African Americans. The current study examined the influence of demographic characteristics on HVLT-R performance measures in a community-dwelling sample of 237 African American older adults (60-84 years). Age, gender, and education accounted for moderate amounts of variance in HVLT-R performance. Based on these results, normative tables for HVLT-R scores, stratified by age and with score adjustments for education and gender, are provided.Keywords
