“…In Alzheimer's disease, performance of mild and moderately demented Alzheimer subjects did not differ in a word-stem completion task from that of normal elderly control subjects, and nor from younger subjects when controlling for age and educational level. Similar results have already been reported (Dick, Kean, & Sands, 1989;Fleischman et al, 1997;Grosse et al, 1990;Miller, 1975;Morris et al, 1983;Partridge, Knight, & Feehan, 1990). However, our results in AD are not concordant with other studies (Bondi & Kaszniak, 1991;Salmon et al, 1988;Shimamura, Salmon, Squire, & Butters, 1987).…”

“…Besides, similar results have been reported previously [38,40,41,42,43,44,45,46,47,48]. However, our results concerning AD are not concordant with those of certain other studies [31,33,34,35,36,37].…”

“…Some investigators have reported a priming deficit in AD [30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37], whereas others have found no differences in priming effects between patients with AD and normal control participants [38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45,46,47,48]. Thus, Fleischman and Gabrieli [29] found that 65% of AD studies reported that priming was normal.…”

Lexical priming was examined in patients with Alzheimer's disease and in aphasic patients. Control participants were divided into young and elderly [cf. Arroyo-Anlló et al.: Eur J Cogn Psychol 2004;16:535-553]. For lexical priming, a word-stem completion task was used. Normal elderly participants had lexical priming scores that were significantly lower than those of young individuals. Analysis of covariance with age and educational level as covariates showed that the control participants, aphasic and Alzheimer patients did not differ significantly on the lexical priming task. Our results suggest that performance in the lexical priming task diminishes with physiological aging, but is not significantly affected by mild or moderate Alzheimer's disease or by fluent or non-fluent aphasia.

“…Reading words accurately is one validated measure of premorbid intelligence (Filley and Cullum, 1997;Schmand, et al 1998). It is one of the most widely used methods because reading words is also one of the few skills preserved at the moderate-to-severe stages of AD (Bushell and Martin, 1997;Fleishman et al, 1997;Monti et al, 1997).

A previous publication presented normative data on neuropsychological tests stratified by age, gender, and education based on the Original Cohort of the Framingham Heart Study. Many contemporary investigations include subject samples with higher levels of education, a factor known to affect cognitive performance. Secular change in education prompted the reexamination of norms in the children of the Original Cohort. The study population consisted of 853 men and 988 women from the Offspring Study, free of clinical neurological disease, who underwent a neuropsychological examination, which included tests given to their parents in 1974 to 1976 as well as additional newer tests to provide a more comprehensive battery. The Offspring population overall was more evenly distributed by gender and better educated. Their performance on cognitive tests was superior to that of the Original Cohort. Multivariable analyses revealed that more years of education explained only a part of the cohort differences. These findings suggest that continued surveillance of each generation is necessary to document the impact that unique social and economic variables have on cognitive function. Here, the authors provide updated normative data.
