Abstract
The number of figures recalled from the Bender-Gestalt Test correlated ( r = 0.74) with the Wechsler Memory Scale raw scores for 65 patients referred for possible intellectual deficit. There was a significantly higher ( P < 0.001) correlation with a factor of memory ( r = 0.76) than with a freedom-from-distractibility factor ( r = 0.40). These results suggest the Bender-Gestalt recall is a good screening measure of memory.Keywords
