This study investigates item and scale properties of the Egyptian WAIS-IV using item response theory (IRT) models.

This study used the Iowa Gambling Task (IGT) to investigate learning differences related to treatment outcome in EDs, comparing between patients with a good and bad treatment outcome and healthy controls. Likewise, the predictive role of impaired learning performance on therapy outcome was explored.

Premorbid IQ (pIQ) and age of onset are predictors of clinical severity and long-term functioning after a first episode of psychosis. However, the additive influence of these variables on clinical, functional, and recovery rates outcomes is largely unknown

The aim of this study was to examine potential moderators of cognitive insight in individuals with first-episode psychosis (FEP) who received either MCT or psychoeducation. The present study was based on data from a randomized control trial comparing MCT to psychoeducation.

The main objective of the present study was to compare neuropsychological performance and its relation to alcohol use in patients with AUD and healthy controls, and to determine the evolution of cognitive impairment and alcohol use over time.

To provide an updated synthesis of evidence on the consistency and magnitude of neurocognitive functioning in individuals at CHR-P.

To investigate factors affecting mHealth technology use in relation to self-rated QoL among older adults with cognitive impairment.

The current chapter provides a critical and narrative review of recent research on the neuropsychiatric disorders, emotional disturbances, and their associations with neurocognitive functioning in people living with HIV infection. We review a range of neuropsychiatric disorders including depression and anxiety disorders, but also emotional disturbances, which can be partly distinguished from depression and anxiety (apathy, alexithymia, and emotional processing impairment)
