Beschreibung

The TOMM™ is a visual recognition test designed to help psychologists and psychiatrists distinguish between malingered and true memory impairments. Research has found the TOMM™ to be sensitive to malingering and insensitive to a wide variety of neurological impairments. It is not as transparent as a malingering test. The TOMM™ consists of two learning trials and an optional retention trial. Results are based on two cut off scores: 1) below chance and 2) criteria based on head injured and cognitively impaired clients. The TOMM™ can be administered by hand or via the computer. With the handscored format, results are recorded and scored on Record Forms. With the software format, TOMM™ Reports can be instantly generated.

The TOMM™ Manual includes recent research on the sensitivity of the TOMM™, including research that addresses the use of the TOMM™ with specific populations, such as children and elderly adults, and those with psychotic disorders, psychiatric illnesses, affective disorders, temporal lobe dysfunction, and chronic toxic encephalopathy.

Testgültigkeit

Comparisons of the learning and retention scores of non-cognitively impaired subjects to those of cognitively impaired subjects using the TOMM™ show that recognition performance was relatively unrelated to free recall measures of visual and verbal learning. This observation was supported by correlational analyses where correlation coefficients between the TOMM™ and other learning measures for all groups ranged from 0.20 to 0.35 across the three trials. The lack of substantial correlation between the TOMM™ and free recall scores is important because it demonstrates that the TOMM™ is relatively insensitive to measures of learning and memory dysfunction which have previously been associated with various neurological impairments. Detailed validation data are presented in the TOMM™ Manual. Validity for the TOMM™ as a test of malingering is also presented in two studies that included validation with simulated malingers and validation with patients at risk for malingering who suffered traumatic brain injury (TBI). The results of these tests suggest that the TOMM™ is a useful psychometric test for detecting exaggerated or deliberately faked memory impairment.

Normen

Data were collected for a number of groups that included cognitively intact individuals and clinical samples consisting of individuals with cognitive impairment, no cognitive impairment, aphasia, traumatic brain injury, and dementia. The TOMM™ Manual presents details including group means and standard deviations for age, number of years of education, and performance results for these samples.
