RIT™

Test structure

• Comprises two timed subtests—Object Interference (OI) and Color Interference (CI), which combine to yield a Total Correct Index (TCI).
• The OI subtest features a grid of pictures of common animals labeled with the name of another animal (e.g., a bird labeled as a horse). The examinee must name the animal under the word, ignoring the label on the picture.
• The CI subtest features a grid of color words that are printed in a different color ink (e.g., the word red is printed in blue ink). Examinees are asked to name the color of the ink, not the color word.

Scoring and reporting

• Score in 5 minutes.
• The two timed subtests (OI and CI) combine to yield a Total Correct Index (TCI).
• Two subtests offer greater coverage, enhanced consistency, and more reliability than a single subtest.
• Includes reliable change scores and discrepancy scores with the Reynolds Intellectual Assessment Scales, Second Edition (RIAS-2).

Technical information

• Standardized on a normative sample of 1,824 participants from 32 states representative of 2012 U.S. Census statistics.

• Data were gathered from 12 clinical groups, including stroke, dementia, intellectual disability, traumatic brain injury, learning disability, ADHD, gifted, and hearing impaired.
