Resumen

Las dificultades en el aprendizaje, los déficits en la evocación de nueva información y la reducción del span son frecuentes en sujetos que han sufrido un traumatismo craneoneoencefálico (TCE) e incluso pueden persistir durante años. En este trabajo estudiamos la evocación inmediata, aprendizaje y recuerdo verbal, a través del aprendizaje de una lista de palabras (Test de aprendizaje auditivo verbal de Rey - TAVR - ; Rey 1964) en pacientes que han sufrido un TCE, contemplando en el análisis la influencia de la evolución sobre los rendimientos, comparando los resultados obtenidos en el TAVR en diferentes momentos evolutivos (desde el ingreso hasta el año). Muestra: 100 sujetos adultos con TCE estudiados en cuatro momentos evolutivos y 100 sujetos adultos normales con características demográficas similares. Análisis estadísticos: Anovas de medidas repetidas y prueba aposteriori Scheffe F-test. Los resultados ponen de manifiesto que la capacidad para realizar tareas de evocación inmediata alcanza a partir de los seis meses los límites de la normalidad. Sin embargo, el aprendizaje verbal y la capacidad de retención del material, continuan alterados en los estudios realizados al año del TCE .
