Is the Boston Naming Test Still Fit For Purpose?

Clinical Neuropsychologist, 2014
The Boston Naming Test (BNT) (Kaplan, Goodglass, & Weintraub, 1983) is the most commonly used test of confrontation naming in neuropsychology (Rabin, Barr, & Burton, 2005). However, there are significant criticisms of the BNT which suggest that it might not be the assessment measure of choice.

Visual Degradation in Boston Naming Test Performance

Perceptual and Motor Skills, 2002
The 60 pictures of the Boston Naming Test were degraded via a mask to be either “easy,” “medium,” or “hard” to process visually. The visual mask was created by cutting a 2-in. x 2-in. square from a security mailing envelope and progressively reducing the size 25% on a copy machine.

Boston naming test in Alzheimer's disease

Neuropsychologia, 1989
The 60-item Boston Naming Test (BNT) was administered to 55 subjects: 15 mildly-to-moderately demented patients meeting NINCDS-ADRDA criteria for "probable" Alzheimer's disease (AD), 15 age-equivalent normal control (NC) subjects, and--for purposes of validation--25 additional subjects with other forms of dementia (OD).

Boston Naming Test: Problems with Administration and Scoring

Psychological Reports, 2003
The poorly written administration and scoring instructions for the Boston Naming Test allow too wide a range of interpretations. Three different, seemingly correct interpretations of the scoring methods were compared. The results show that these methods can produce large differences in the total score.

Spanish boston naming test norms

The Clinical Neuropsychologist, 1997
Abstract The Spanish version of the Boston Naming Test (BNT) has enjoyed widespread use in many clinical and research studies since its introduction. However, there are no normative data available for this test, and the original English language order of presentation is maintained.

Equivalent forms of the boston naming test

Journal of Clinical and Experimental Neuropsychology, 1986
In order to develop a test of naming ability that is sensitive to changes in performance on repeated testing, but is unbiased by practice effects, the 85 items of the Boston Naming Test (BNT) were divided into two 42-item forms. Both forms were given to 15 healthy adult subjects, 24 patients with a clinical diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease, and 17 ...

Familiarity Norms for the Boston Naming Test Stimuli

Applied Neuropsychology, 1998
Forty-nine young adults (M age = 22 years) and 30 elderly adults (M age = 69 years) rated the 60 pictorial stimuli from the Boston Naming Test (BNT) on familiarity, providing the first such normative data for these stimuli along this dimension. Participants also made speeded lexical decisions about the word item representations of each BNT picture.
