Abstract: Objective To study the reliability of an implicit memory test–Fragmented Character Identification Assessment. Methods Some Chinese pictographic characters and non-pictographic characters were fragmented to form two sets of identification task. From September, 2013 to March, 2016, a total of 78 health young and middle aged people were assessed with the task, and 20 of them were assessed again with another parallel version 14 days later. The internal consistency, test-retest reliability and duplicate split-half reliability were analyzed. Results There was no significant difference in priming of implicit memory between pictograph and non-pictograph (t=1.006, P>0.05). Cronbach's α was 0.763 and 0.729 for the pictograph and non-pictograph fragmented character identification assessment, respectively; while the inter-class coefficients (ICC) of test-retest were 0.785 and 0.771, ICC of split-half reliability were 0.792 and 0.789. Conclusion The reliability is satisfactory in Chinese Fragmented Character Identification Assessment.
