Research Interest: Dementia Phenomenology- Clinical phenomenology of dementia concentrating on frontal executive control functions and related clinical phenomena. |
Research Interest: Health Services Research- Concentrating on the cognitive correlates of functional status, forensic capacity, and need for services across diagnostic groups. Also on the ability of qualitative assessment to cost-effectively target dementia subgroups for evaluation. |
Research Interest: Psychometrics- Clinical assessment strategies (e.g. for dementia): Concentrating on the development of bedside measures for the assessment of executive control [The Executive Interview (EXIT25) *Royall 1992, 1995, The Executive Interview Spanish Translation (EXIT-S) *Royall 1995, The Telephone Executive Assessment Scale (TEXAS), CLOX: An Executive Clock Drawing Task *Royall 1995] and qualitative assessment of dementia phenomenology [Qualitative Evaluation of Dementia (QED) *Royall 1992, 1995. |
Research Technical Expertise- Longitudinal data analysis, latent variable models, Structural Equation Models, Growth Curve and Growth Mixture Models, Clinical Trials, neuroimaging studies |
