In this study, a new screening battery is proposed as a replacement for the Mini-Mental State Examination (Folstein, Folstein, & McHugh, 1975), which has proven to have restricted diagnostic utility in the assessment of neurological patients in a South African Neurology ward. The authors know of no other screening instrument which has been translated into Afrikaans and isiXhosa and has been validated in South Africa; given the incidence of head injury and stroke in the Western Cape there is compelling evidence for the existence of an accurate, affordable, culturally appropriate neurocognitive screening instrument. The Groote Schuur Neurocognitive Assessment Battery (GSNAB) is comprised of well-established Euro-American neuropsychological tests, which over the last three years, have been adapted and translated into isiXhosa and Afrikaans. 2014-12-30T19:52:44Z 2014-12-30T19:52:44Z 2008 Master Thesis Masters MA http://hdl.handle.net/11427/10642 eng application/pdf Department of Psychology Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town |
