Patients with major depression show intact memory performance--given optimal conditions.
Applied Neuropsychology 2011 July
In the present study, verbal and visual memory functioning in a group of recurrent major depressive disorder patients were investigated. The study included 48 participants: 24 patients and 24 control subjects. Verbal and visual memory were investigated using the California Verbal Learning Test and the Rey Complex Figure Test. The results show that the depressed patients performed significantly worse compared with the controls on the very first trial in the verbal memory test. On all other conditions, the patients showed intact verbal memory, while visual memory was impaired. It is important to highlight the intact verbal memory performance in the acute phase of illness to detect cognitive strengths in this patient group.
