When Time is of the Essence: Preliminary Findings for a Quick Administration of the Dot Counting Test.

CONCLUSIONS: Abbreviated DCT versions utilizing 6- and 4-card combinations yielded comparable sensitivity/specificity as the full DCT. When these "quick" DCT combinations were further combined with an abbreviated memory-based performance validity test (i.e., TOMMT1), overall classification accuracy for identifying invalid performance was 95%.
