This picture naming test was developed as part of a battery of single word expressive and verbal memory tests which has been used successfully to distinguish groups of healthy elderly people, people with mild fluent aphasia and people with the language difficulties associated with probable Alzheimer's Disease (AD). This 50 item naming test provides some unique features and should be clinically useful as a measure of word finding. It provides a naming score, which can be used as a baseline measure of word finding; a measure of cueing responsiveness; error type analysis (with typical patterns of fluent aphasia and AD); and it considers the effect of stimulus name length in syllables on naming success. This package comprises: 50 line drawings, graded in familiarity; a test manual which describes the background and development of the test and gives instructions for test administration; and performance analysis forms.
