Rey Figure Test with recognition trial: normative data for Lebanese adults

Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to provide normative data for four trials of the Rey figure Test–a complex design used to assess visuoconstructional abilities, aspects of visual memory, and aspects of executive functioning. Despite its frequent clinical and research use in the Arab region, published studies regarding the measures’ adaptation or normative data remain absent. Method: We administered the Rey figure on a convenience sample of Lebanese (n = 254) aged 30 years to 99. Results: We examined the impact of relevant demographics, and found that age, gender, and years of education impacted scores, and norms were derived based on these variables. Such normative data for the Rey figure enhance its practicality and psychometric adequacy for use in research and clinical settings in Lebanon. © 2018, © 2018 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.
