This study investigated the effect of acculturation on Halstead-Reitan neuropsychological test performance on nonimpaired Hispanic Americans using 3 groups of 50 subjects: Mexican American, Anglo-American, and Mexican. A significant effect for acculturation was found on several measures. Clinical and research applications are discussed. (SLD)
