Learning Slope and Position Effects in Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test: Diagnostic Value in Schizophrenia by M. Alfimova, V.V. Plakunova, V.E. Golimbet

“…In the schizophrenia group, a correlation analysis conditioned on total recall revealed an association between the recency and the RAVLT retroactive interference indicator (ρ=0.13; p=0.001), but not with symptoms, processing speed, or executive functions. Thus, an increased recency effect, which is likely arises, in part, due to a heightened retroactive interference, may have diagnostic significance for schizophrenia, in addition to the overall poor learning efficiency.…”
