The results of psychometric analyses of the Metamemory Questionnaire (MQ; Zelinski, Gilewski, & Thompson, 1980), developed to evaluate perception of everyday memory functioning, are presented for a sample of 343 men and 435 women aged 16 to 89. Exploratory factor analysis yielded 4 correlated factors--General Frequency of Forgetting, Seriousness of Forgetting, Retrospective Functioning, and Mnemonics Usage--which accounted for 36.7% of the variance in responses to the MQ. Factor structure was invariant across age groups (16-54 vs. 55-89 years), 2 independent samples, and over 3 years. Because some of the original MQ scales did not load on the factors, only 64 of the original 92 items were retained for inclusion in the Memory Functioning Questionnaire (MFQ). Internal consistency of MFQ scores is high. The MFQ is therefore reliable for evaluating memory self-appraisals.
为评估日常记忆功能的感知而编制的元记忆问卷（MQ；泽林斯基、吉莱夫斯基和汤普森，1980），对343名年龄在16至89岁之间的男性和435名女性样本进行了心理测量分析。探索性因素分析得出了4个相关因素——遗忘的总体频率、遗忘的严重性、回顾性功能和记忆术的使用——它们占MQ回答方差的36.7%。因素结构在不同年龄组（16 - 54岁与55 - 89岁）、2个独立样本以及3年多的时间里保持不变。由于原始MQ量表中的一些项目未在这些因素上有载荷，因此在最初的92个项目中仅保留了64个纳入记忆功能问卷（MFQ）。MFQ分数的内部一致性很高。因此，MFQ在评估记忆自我评估方面是可靠的。
