The Neuropsychological Battery table contains data for multiple assessments, including: Logical Memory, Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test, Clock Drawing, Clock Copying, Category Fluency, Trail Making Test, Boston Naming Test, ANART, and Digit Span. At any given visit, only a subset of those tests are administered. The Digit Span was dropped after ADNI1. The Category Fluency - Animals was retained, but Vegetables were dropped after ADNI1. A Spanish language option for the Boston Naming Test became available for participants testing in Spanish beginning with ADNIGO. The data dictionary for this table can be difficult to parse to identify which variables belong to which assessment. For clarity, the field/variable names associated with each test are identified here:

Logical Memory - Immediate Recall: LMSTORY, LIMMTOTAL, LIMMEND

Logical Memory - Delayed Recall: LDELBEGIN, LDELTOTAL, LDELCUE.

Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test: AVTOT1, AVERR1, AVTOT2, AVERR2, AVTOT3, AVERR3, AVTOT4, AVERR4, AVTOT5, AVERR5, AVTOT6, AVERR6, AVTOTB, AVERRB, AVENDED

Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test - Delayed: AVDELBEGAN, AVDEL30MIN, AVDELERR1, AVDELTOT, AVDELERR2

Clock Drawing: CLOCKCIRC, CLOCKSYM, CLOCKNUM, CLOCKHAND, CLOCKTIME, CLOCKSCOR

Clock Copying: COPYCIRC, COPYSYM, COPYNUM, COPYHAND, COPYTIME, COPYSCOR

Category Fluency (Vegetables ADNI1 only): CATANIMSC, CATANPERS, CATANINTR, CATVEGESC, CATVGPERS, CATVGINTR

Trail Making Test: TRAASCOR, TRAAERRCOM, TRAAERROM, TRABSCOR, TRABERRCOM, TRABERROM

Boston Naming Test (Spanish version provided in ADNIGO/2): BNTND, BNTSPONT, BNTSTIM, BNTCSTIM, BNTPHON, BNTCPHON, BNTTOTAL
