Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the reliability and concurrent validity of 2 short forms of the Visual Form Discrimination Test, referred to as first half (FH) and front-back (FB). Participants were a mixed sample of 225 patients seen for neuropsychological evaluations. The mean difference score between both short forms and the full form was less than 1 point. The short-total correlations were .85 and .86 for the FH and FB forms, respectively. A binary clinical decision rule, used to classify patients as normal or impaired, resulted in a 93.3% correct and a 94.7% correct classification rate for the FH and FB forms, respectively. It is concluded that the short form of the test, used in conjunction with a clinical decision rule, results in a very minor loss of accuracy.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
