This study examined the performance of a sample of 821 healthy job app
licants on the Paced Auditory Serial Addition Test (PASAT). Subjects h
ad previously passed basic academic skills tests and physical examinat
ions and were deemed free of cognitive impairment and medical illness.
They were also motivated to perform well on cognitive tests. Gender,
ethnicity, and education were not significant moderator variables in o
ur subjects. Age and IQ did significantly affect PASAT test results. N
ormative data are stratified by age and WAIS-R Full Scale IQ scores to
be useful to those who administer the PASAT in clinical practice.
