  • Title: A very short version of the Minnesota Aphasia Test.
    Author: Powell GE, Bailey S, Clark E.
    Journal: Br J Soc Clin Psychol; 1980 Jun; 19(2):189-94. PubMed ID: 7397463.
    Abstract:
    A very short version of the Minnesota Differential Diagnosis of Aphasia Test is described. It is standardized on 86 aphasics and reduces the original 43 subtests to just four; takes less than 15 minutes to give; correlates by over 0.9 with the total full test; and misclassified only 13 per cent of subjects. These four subtests are identifying objects named serially (A4), oral reading of words (B8), naming pictures (C13) and written spelling (D6). This extensive shortening is made feasible by the high degree of redundancy in the original full version. The test is designed to detect asphasia in general, and not to partition aphasics typologically, for which the full Minnesota is required.
