       updated norms for ages 16–90, using a nationally stratified sample matched to the U.S. population;

       application of a scaled score metric (mean = 10, SD = 3) over the T score and z-score metric to allow easier comparison to other measures;

       introduction of index scores (mean = 100, SD = 15) on the key memory and learning scores (Trials 1–5, total delayed recall, total recall);

       updated intrusion measures to reflect different types of memory errors;

       digital administration, recording, and scoring; and

       provision of demographic adjustments to age-adjusted scores for education and sex presented as T scores in the scoring software.

Detailed information on the modifications and improvements to the content, psychometric properties, and clinical utility of the CVLT3 are described in the CVLT3 Manual. An overview of the changes is provided in Rapid Reference 1.4.

The CVLT3 introduced significant changes to the scoring of the CVLT-II. Although scores still measure the processes underlying attention, learning, and memory, the traditional T score and z-score metrics were changed to standard and scaled scores. This allows direct comparison to other measures commonly used in evaluations. Three index scores are derived by summing the scaled scores for the learning trials (Trials 1–5), for the delayed recall trials (free and cued recall), and for all recall trials (learning, interference, short delay, and long delay). For the primary process scores, age-corrected scaled scores were derived with a mean of 10 and a standard deviation of 3. In addition, cumulative percentages are provided for some scores that had highly skewed distributions. The normative scores derived in CVLT3 are listed in Rapid Reference 1.5 by condition.

Contrast scores are utilized for difference scores in CVLT3. Contrast scaled scores provide information about performance on one task adjusted for performance on another relevant task. Similar to the manner in which demographic adjustments are derived for normative scores, one score is adjusted to account for performance on a related but separate score. For example, the Long-Delay Free-Recall Correct vs. Short-Delay Free-Recall Correct Contrast Scaled Score adjusts the long-delay score based on performance on short-delay recall. This accounts for differences in performance on delayed memory due to differences in immediate recall. The new score represents the examinee's performance on delayed memory in comparison to individuals of similar immediate memory ability. Because contrast scores utilize age-adjusted scaled scores, they are not further adjusted by age. Contrast scaled scores are provided at the scaled score level and are presented as scaled scores with a mean of 10 and a standard deviation of 3. Contrast scores are used to interpret scores in relation to similar ability peers; they do not replace subtest scaled scores and should not be substituted for primary scores in reports or to compute index scores. Detailed information on the interpretation of contrast scaled scores is provided in Chapter 4.

      The CVLT3 introduces the use of demographic adjustments to norms. In addition to the age-adjusted normative scores, education, and sex adjustments are provided in the scoring software. The demographic adjustments are applied to the normative scores to produce T scores that account for education and sex differences.
