TL;DR
The present paper deals with the validity of certain tests as measures of thought-process disorder and how type of disorder is related to various sub-categories of schizophrenia, as diagnosed clinically and by the Symptom-Sign Inventory.
Abstract
This is the first of a series of papers reporting studies of various cognitive disorders in schizophrenia. The present paper deals with the validity of certain tests as measures of thought-process disorder: subsequent papers will relate type of disorder to various sub-categories of schizophrenia, as diagnosed clinically and by the Symptom-Sign Inventory (Foulds, 1965).

It was shown that diagnosis has significant inferences for therapy and concordance of diagnostic opinion varies according to the diagnostic group and also suggests that higher levels are attained with more severely disturbed patients.

The three best measures of overinclusive thinking in Payne and Hewlett's (12)battery, were the Non-A score from the Object Classification test, the average number of words used in explaining the Benjamin proverbs, and theaverage number of objects per group selected during the “handing over” experiment in the Goldstein Object Sorting test.

The purpose of the present study was to produce a clinically economic and adequately standardised grid test for detecting the presence of schizophrenic thought disorder.

The results of the two experiments reported suggest that conceptual structure as operationally defined is differentially modifiable by varying validational experience and that such experience can be introduced and measured in experimentally controlled conditions.

67 Citations1962R. W. Payne
The Object Classification test consists of twelve small objects which can be sorted in ten different ways, and it was found that only acute schizophrenics give evidence of overinclusive thinking on this test, and that, of these, only half give an abnormally large number of ‘Non-A’ responses.

It was finally shown that if two separate constellations of constructs are available to normal subjects and one is serially validated and the second serially invalidated, then intercorrelations in the former will rise while in the latter the pattern of construct relationship will repeatedly change and the strength of correlations will ultimately fall.

It is concluded that in their present form the tests used are not sufficiently reliable to recommend their clinical use and the legitimacy of summing the three individual test scores to obtain a single composite over-inclusion score is considered.

Some of the relationships between sorting test response and sedation threshold/spiral after-effect performance were found to hold, not only in psychotics, but also in neurotic and normal individuals.
