Abstract
The relationship between self-reported cognitive deficits and objectively measured cognitive performance was examined in 86 patients entering substance abuse treatment. Self-ratings of cognitive impairment were strongly correlated with indices of depression and vulnerability to stress, but not with objective cognitive performance. Confirming the lack of relationship between self-report and objective cognitive measures, cognitive performance did not differ between patients at the extremes of the cognitive-complaint distribution; and cognitively impaired patients did not differ from cognitively intact patients in their self-ratings of impairment.Entities:
