  • Title: Concordance between the CVLT and the WMS-III word lists test.
    Author: McDowell BD, Bayless JD, Moser DJ, Meyers JE, Paulsen JS.
    Journal: Arch Clin Neuropsychol; 2004 Mar; 19(2):319-24. PubMed ID: 15010095.
    Abstract:
    The California Verbal Learning Test (CVLT) and the Word Lists Test (WLT) from the Wechsler Memory Scale-III are widely used tests of verbal learning and memory. To examine concordance between these popular tests, we administered both to a diagnostically diverse group of 25 patients. As expected, measures from the two tests were highly correlated, although level of concordance was not as high as might be expected. When diagnostic outcomes were discordant for free recall measures, the CVLT indicated impairment more often than did the WLT.
