Simucase Assessment Results – 2026
Update with complete solutionsQ1. What is
the primary purpose of the CLQT+?
A) To diagnose specific types of dementia
B) To quickly assess strengths and weaknesses in five
cognitive domains and add an optional administration path
for people with aphasia
C) To measure IQ and academic achievement
D) To evaluate only language skills in adults
Answer: B
Rationale: The CLQT+ is a criterion-referenced test designed to
quickly assess strengths and weaknesses in attention, memory,
executive functions, language, and visuospatial skills. The 2017
,Page 2 of 140
update (CLQT+) specifically added an aphasia-friendly
administration path with a semantic comprehension task, making
it more accessible for individuals with language impairments
following left-hemisphere stroke .
Q2. Who developed the CLQT and CLQT+?
A) Harold Goodglass
B) Nancy Helm-Estabrooks
C) Andrew Kertesz
D) Audrey Holland
Answer: B
Rationale: The CLQT and CLQT+ were developed by leading
neurobehavioral researcher and author Nancy Helm-Estabrooks,
ScD. Dr. Helm-Estabrooks is renowned for her work in aphasia
and cognitive-linguistic assessment. Understanding the test
author’s background helps clinicians appreciate the test’s
,Page 3 of 140
theoretical foundations, particularly its integration of linguistic
and non-linguistic cognitive domains .
Q3. The CLQT+ assesses which FIVE cognitive domains?
A) Attention, Memory, Language, Executive Functions, and
Visuospatial Skills
B) Verbal Comprehension, Perceptual Reasoning, Working
Memory, Processing Speed, and Visual-Spatial Processing
C) Fluid Reasoning, Knowledge, Quantitative Reasoning,
Working Memory, and Visual-Spatial Processing
D) Attention, Processing Speed, Long-Term Memory, Executive
Functions, and Social Cognition
Answer: A
Rationale: These five domains represent the core cognitive-
linguistic functions most commonly affected by acquired brain
injury and neurodegenerative disease. Notably, the CLQT+
, Page 4 of 140
uniquely integrates language assessment with other cognitive
domains, making it particularly relevant for speech-language
pathologists .
Q4. How many subtests are included in the CLQT+ Traditional
Administration?
A) 8
B) 10
C) 12
D) 14
Answer: B
Rationale: The Traditional Administration includes 10 subtests:
Personal Facts, Symbol Cancellation, Confrontation Naming,
Clock Drawing, Story Retelling, Symbol Trails, Generative
Naming, Design Memory, Mazes, and Design Generation. Each
subtest taps into multiple cognitive domains. For example,
