Fig 1 Mean T scores with 1 SD score ranges for neuropsychologic tests across measures for all patients. NOTE. CVLT total number of words remembered, TMT total seconds to test completion, SDMT total number correct in 90 seconds, grooved pegboard test (GPB) total seconds to test completion, fluency total number of words generated in 1 minute per trial, and WCST total number of perseverative responses and total errors. Higher scores indicate better performance on the CVLT, SDMT, and fluency measures (FAS/animal naming). Higher scores indicate poorer performance on the TMT, grooved pegboard test, and WCST. Abbreviations: DH, dominant hand; LDFR, long delay, free recall; Naming, animal naming; NDH, nondominant hand; Per Res, perseverative response; RecogD, recognition delayed; SDFR, short delay, free recall; Tot Err, total errors.

Fig 3 A comparison of neuropsychologic test performance (T scores and 1 SD score ranges) by PTA status (determined by TBIMS criteria as described in the Data Analysis section). NOTE. T scores of 40 equal performance at 1 SD below the mean of normative persons, T scores of 30 equal performance at 2 SDs below the mean, and T scores of 20 equal performance at 3 SDs below the mean. Higher T scores indicate better performance across all tests.
