Summary

The proposed pilot further emphasizes the need for collecting language and demographic specific norms for Spanish-speaking Latino individuals in the U.S. by developing new normative test data for this demographic population. The study looks to contribute to minimize healthcare disparities and inaccurate test interpretations, which can have direct implications on diagnosis and treatment. This study will allow us to develop new neuropsychological test norms for predominantly Spanish-speaking adults by establishing expected cognitive performance on a battery of frequently used neuropsychological tests. As such, the current study will help fill a large gap in the literature pertaining to neuropsychological assessment of Spanish-Speakers living in the U.S., as well as produce data of clinical utility for providers working with this population. Finally, this pilot could serve as a model to eventually extend it to other non-English speaking populations in the US.
