Crago BR, Gray MR, Nelson LA, Davis M, Arnold L, Thrasher JD (2003) · Archives of Environmental Health 58(8):452–463
A comparison study reported differences in psychological, neuropsychological, and EEG measures between people reporting mixed mold exposure and control subjects.
What they studied
Subjects reporting exposure to mixed mold in buildings, compared with control subjects.
Standardized psychological and neuropsychological test batteries.
Quantitative electroencephalography.
What they found
The authors reported higher levels of psychological distress in the exposed group.
Differences in neuropsychological test performance were reported relative to controls.
Abnormal electrocortical patterns were reported in the exposed group.
What it does not establish
Cross-sectional comparison; exposure was not quantified in the building environment.
Participants were referred or self-selected, raising selection bias.
The design cannot establish that exposure caused the measured differences.
This entry reports the study. It is not a statement about any building Sage Co. designs or constructs.
