Abstract：
UNASSIGNED: Use of performance validity tests (PVTs) to assess suboptimal performance has become a recommended feature in neuropsychological evaluations. However, most of the literature has examined the utility of PVTs in primarily non-Hispanic White, monolingual English-speaking samples. Given the continual growth of culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) populations, especially Hispanic/Latin Americans (H/Ls), it is necessary to provide an updated review on the available literature involving the use of PVTs in H/L adults.
UNASSIGNED: We conducted a systematic review that examined the available literature surrounding use of performance validity measures in H/L adults. This review identified evidence for the utility of PVTs in assessing invalid performance in H/Ls and compiled psychometric properties related to these measures, specifically rates of specificity and sensitivity when available.
UNASSIGNED: We identified six standalone and four embedded performance validity measures that have been examined in H/Ls. The Test of Memory Malingering (TOMM) was identified as the PVT most studied in various H/L heritage groups. Across the studies reviewed, adjustments to cutoff scores are generally recommended for the majority of PVTs discussed. Within H/Ls, specificity rates tend to be bolstered when sociocultural factors, like education, are considered.
UNASSIGNED: Recommended cutoff scores across the different PVTs reviewed are not typically suitable for use in heritage groups of H/L adults, especially in groups that include adults with lower levels of education and literacy. Therefore, education may need to be considered when applying cutoffs to these populations.

摘要：
■使用性能有效性测试（PVTs）评估次优性能已成为神经心理学评估中的推荐功能。然而,大多数文献研究了PVTs在主要非西班牙裔白人中的效用，单语英语样本。鉴于文化和语言多样化（CALD）人口的持续增长，尤其是西班牙裔/拉丁美洲人（H/L），有必要提供有关在H/L成人中使用PVTs的现有文献的最新综述.
■我们进行了系统综述，研究了关于在H/L成人中使用绩效效度指标的现有文献。这项审查确定了PVT在评估H/L无效性能方面的效用的证据，并汇编了与这些措施相关的心理测量特性，特异性和灵敏度的具体比率。
■我们确定了六个独立的和四个嵌入的性能有效性度量，这些度量已经在H/L中进行了检查。记忆恶意测试（TOMM）被确定为各种H/L遗产组中研究最多的PVT。在审查的研究中，对于讨论的大多数PVT，通常建议对截止分数进行调整。在H/L内，当社会文化因素，像教育一样，被考虑。
■所审查的不同PVT的推荐截止分数通常不适合用于H/L成年人的遗产组，特别是在包括教育和识字水平较低的成年人的群体中。因此,在对这些人群应用截止日期时，可能需要考虑教育。
