Objective and Subjective Clustering Methods for Verb Fluency Responses From Individuals With Alzheimer's Dementia and Cognitively Healthy Older Adults

CONCLUSIONS: The results from using the objective clustering method in this study are consistent with the previous literature, making it a viable option for clustering analyses on the verb fluency task, which naturally minimizes subjectivity and rater bias. Alternatively, employing a thoroughly validated and reliable subjective approach can also mitigate potential rater bias and improve replicability across studies.SUPPLEMENTAL MATERIAL: https://doi.org/10.23641/asha.24061017.PMID:37722380 | DOI:10.1044/2023_AJSLP-22-00290
