Opplysninger | The Arizona Battery for Communication Disorders of Dementia (ABCD)(Bayles & Tomoeda, 1993) was given to groups of young and old normalsubjects and to subjects with moderate Alzheimer's disease in the UK.Very few significant differences were found between their raw scoresand those of the original standardisation sample in the USA, whichmakes the ABCD an appropriate test to rue in the UK. Although somesubjects commented on several of the test stimuli culturaldifferences in pictures and vocabulary did not produce notableeffects on test performance and so alterations to test materials arenot required for the test to be used in the UK.
