Abstrakt: This study provides information on the interrater reliability of the quantitative scoring system of the Luria-Nebraska Neuropsychological Battery Form II (LNNB-II). The accuracy of each rater following a training procedure was also evaluated. Six college students served as raters, and participated in a 20–22-hour training procedure. This training procedure utilized a protocol similar to one used in previous interrater reliability studies performed with Form I. Following the training procedure, raters were asked to score two videotaped LNNB-II administrations in which a confederate portrayed test performance that was relatively straightforward to score, as well as more ambiguous test performance. Excellent interrater agreement and accuracy were found on the quantitative scoring on both tapes. Implications for training in administration and scoring are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
