Abstract
Performance validity tests (PVT) should be used when assessing youth with mild traumatic brain injury (MTBI). The goal of this study was to derive a new cutscore for determining invalid performance on the Memory Validity Profile (MVP) in youth with MTBI. Children and adolescents (N = 92; mean age =14.8 years, SD = 2.3, range =8–18) on average six months (SD = 3.6) post-MTBI were administered the MVP as part of their assessment. Two validated PVTs [Test of Memory Malingering (TOMM) and Medical Symptom Validity Test (MSVT)] were administered and used to group the sample into valid (n = 73, neither TOMM/MSVT failed) and invalid (n = 19, both TOMM/MSVT failed). New cutscores for the MVP to determine invalid performance in this sample were established using failure on both TOMM/MSVT as the criterion. MVP performance correlated significantly with failure on TOMM/MSVT. Youth with invalid performance had significantly lower MVP total scores and area under the curve was .80, suggesting good separation of groups. A cutscore of 31 or less on the MVP provided sensitivity of 63% for detecting invalid performance with 93% specificity. This study yields a promising new cutscore for the MVP that has good sensitivity and strong specificity for detecting invalid performance in youth with MTBI.

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
