Standardisation Research of Luria Nebraska

There are published manuals for the Luria Nebraska that define the battery in detail and provide information pertinent to validity, reliability, and norms. There are also many reviews articles that comprehensively describe the research done with the battery. Very shortly reviewing this material, satisfactory discriminative validity has been reported in studies directed toward differentiating miscellaneous brain damaged patients from normal controls and from chronic schizophrenics. Cross validations were generally successful, but Shelly and Goldstein (1983) could not fully imitate the studies involved with discriminating among brain- damaged and schizophrenic patients
