Abstract

When validated against a clinical sample, the Hand Test was able to differentiate between 50 brain-damaged and 50 functionally disturbed individuals with 69% accuracy. Significant variables were Description, Withdrawal, Pathology, Automatic Phrasing, Gross, Hiding, and Demonstration. The Hand Test seems to have some value for diagnosing organicity, but it should be used with caution and preferably as part of a test battery.
