“…Associations between executive functioning and psychosocial outcome following TBI have been found with the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST: Vilkki et al, 1994), Trail Making Test (Nybo et al, 2004), Fluency tests (Ownsworth & Fleming, 2005;Tate, 1999), Tinker Toy Test (Martzke et al, 1991) and a Go-Nogo Task (Bogod et al, 2003). However, in other studies the WCST (Martzke et al, 1991;Mathias & Coats, 1999;Tate, 1999), Fluency tests (Milders et al, 2003;Vilkki et al, 1994) and Tinker Toy Test (Ownsworth & Fleming, 2005) failed to predict psychosocial outcome, and similar null results were found with the Stroop Test (Bogod et al, 2003;Vilkki et al, 1994), the Key Search Test (Ownsworth & Fleming, 2005;Wood & Liossi, 2006), and the Brixton Test (Wood & Liossi, 2006). These conflicting findings illustrate the difficulty of measuring executive functioning (Crawford & Henry, 2005), and specifically those aspects relevant for psychosocial outcome.…”
