Abstract
Rey (1964) devised a simple 15-item (3-columns × 5 rows) visual memory test to detect faking or exaggeration of memory complaints. To gather normative observations on patients with genuine memmory disorders, the authors administered this test to 100 temporal lobe epilepsy inpatients (TLEs) who showed defective performance on at least 1 of 4 standardized memory tests. To determine whether outpatients with neurological disorders (OPs) would produce a distribution of scores similar to those of TLEs, Rey's 3×5 was administered to 56 OPs who has been referred for neuropsychological evaluation. Sixteen OPs in litigation were excluded from the outpatient sample because motivation for optimal performance could not be assumed

Neuropsychological assessment and malingering: a critical review of past and present strategies.

TL;DR: The present literature review describes the historical and current methods of detecting malingerers, along with the empirical evidence supporting, or condemning, their use, and indicates that a multidimensional, multimethod approach is needed.

The Rey 15-item recognition trial: a technique to enhance sensitivity of the Rey 15-item memorization test.

TL;DR: A free recall score <9 was found to have excellent specificity, although sensitivity was modest, and use of a combined recall and recognition score substantially increased sensitivity (71%) while maintaining high specificity (92%).

TL;DR: The evaluative and differential diagnostic process is reviewed and the clinician with suggestions regarding assessment methods is provided, including careful consideration of possible negative response bias.

Test performance and classification statistics for the Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test in selected clinical samples

TL;DR: The Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test (RAVLT) as mentioned in this paper is a commonly used neuropsychological measure that assesses verbal learning and memory and has been used to diagnose neurological disorders.

Detection of inadequate effort on neuropsychological testing: a meta-analytic review of selected procedures.

TL;DR: Overall, studies using the Digit Memory Test, Portland Digit Recognition Test, 15-Item Test, 21- Item Test, and the Dot Counting Test had average effect sizes indicating that dissimulators obtain scores that are approximately 1.1 standard deviations below those of honest responders.

Evaluating storage, retention, and retrieval in disordered memory and learning

TL;DR: These new methods provide simultaneous analysis of storage, retention, and retrieval during verbal learning because they let the patient show learning by spontaneous retrieval without csnfounding by continual presentation.
