The primary purposes of this study were to (1) determine if controls, mild, and moderate/severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) participants performed differently on a battery of executive functioning tests; (2) identify the operating characteristics of executive functioning tests in controls and traumatic brain injury participants; and (3) develop a linear combination of predictor variables that distinguished group membership. Participants consisted of 46 brain injured individuals and 24 non brain injured controls. All participants completed an extensive battery of executive functioning tests. Multiple one-way ANOVAs showed that, in general, no differences in test performance were noted between controls and mild TBI participants, but moderate/severe TBI participants consistently performed worse than either group. Results also showed that a computerized version of the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test yielded the highest positive predictive power among all tests, and the proportion of perseverative errors best distinguished groups in a discriminant function analysis. These findings provide information regarding the diagnostic accuracy of executive functioning tests in TBI and should assist clinical neuropsychologists in accurately identifying individuals with brain dysfunction.
