Abstract:
Objective To analyze the reliability and validity of Revised EC301Calculation and Number Processing Battery in Chinese version (EC301-CR); To establish diagnostic criteria by EC301-CR for acalculia in order to provide an effective assessment tool clinically. Methods The items of EC301were adjusted. 103 patients with acquired brain injury and 37 normal controls were randomly selected. 24 normal controls randomly selected were retested 6 weeks latter. Results The Cronbach's coefficient, the split-half reliability and the retest reliability coefficients were 0.907, 0.744, and 0.965, respectively. The correlation coefficient within subscales was more than the correlation coefficient between subscales. 4 first-order factors were extracted which accounted for 69.359% of the accumulated variance, which were mental calculation, number transcoding, written calculation and approximation, and understanding of numbers. Control data (n=37) showed that the P10 of EC301-CR was 222.6. Conclusion The critical value of acalculia is 222.6 in EC301-CR test. Psychometric properties analysis shows that EC301-CR is a reliable and validated instrument for acalculia.
