Validation of the computerised battery for neuropsychological evaluation of children (BENCI) in a Cuban sample.

ABSTRACT: The aim of this research was to analyse the reliability and validity of the Computerised Battery for Neuropsychological Evaluation of Children (BENCI) in a Cuban population of children and adolescents. The study involved 1714 Cuban students between the ages of 6 and 18 who were divided into three groups according to their level of education (Elementary: 6-11 years old; High School: 12-14 years old; and Pre-University: 15-18 years old). All participants were evaluated using the BENCI with some also undergoing additional neuropsychological testing.

The results showed that the BENCI has good test-retest reliability indices and high internal cons
