Retention measures are psychometric measures of memory retention

There are different neuropsychological assessment measures for each aspect of memory

General memory measures

Wechsler Memory Scale WMS
Rivermead Behavioural Memory Test(RBMT-II)
Memory Assessment Scales (MAS)
Test of Memory and Learning (TOMAL)

Short term memory assessment

Digit span testing

Long term memory assessment

Implicit Memory Testing

Implicit memory tests indirectly measure the retention of information that has not been consciously attended to.

Implicit Association Test (IAT)
Lexical Decision Task (LDT)
Word Stem Completion (WSC)
Artificial Grammar Learning (AGL)
Word Fragment Completion (WFC)

Episodic memory measures

Gröber & Buschke (verbal)
DMS48 (visual)

Prospective memory measures

Cambridge Prospective Memory Test (CAMPROMPT)

Verbal memory measures

California Verbal Learning Task
Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test (RAVLT)
The verbal section of the Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status (RBANS)

Visual memory tests

Semantic memory measures

Word Memory Test (WMT)
Portland Digit Recognition Test (PDRT)

Tests of malingering
