PYC 4807ASSIGNMENT 1 AND 2
2021
, ASSIGNMENT 1
In the article by Gadd and Phipps (2012), they refer to the challenges faced by psychological and,
specifically, neuropsychological assessment. Their study focused on a preliminary standardisation of
the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (a non-verbal measure) for Setswana-speaking university students.
The US normative sample is described as participants (N = 899) from both genders who were screened
beforehand to exclude individuals with a history of neurological, learning, emotional and attention
difficulties. The South African sample consisted of university students (N = 93) from both genders,
between the ages of 18 and 29, who were screened in terms of hearing and visual impairments and any
history of psychiatric/neurological difficulties. The latter was done to prevent contamination of the
results by these variables. The students were from the University of Limpopo, Medunsa Campus.
