The Cambridge Cognitive Examination-Revised (CAMCOG) is widely used in clinical, epidemiological and research studies, but normative scores for age and educational level have not yet been established in the Spanish population.
The CAMCOG-R was administered to 730 adult members ofthe community, aged between 50-97 years, living throughout the region of Galicia. Initial screening yielded provisional identification of cognitive impairment and depressive symptoms. The final sample consisted of 643 cognitively healthy adults. The following instruments were administered: a questionnaire concerning socio-demographic and clinical data, the Charlson's Comorbidity Index, the Mini-Mental State Examination, the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), the Lawton and Brody Index, a short version of the Geriatric Depression Scale, and the CASP-19 quality of life scale.
Internal consistency values of the CAMCOG-R were similar to those obtained for the original scale. The convergent validity between MoCA and CAMCOG-R was good, and the divergent validity between CASP-19 and CAMCOG-R was higher than the recommended value. Percentiles and inter-quartile range for age and educational level were calculated.
Psychometric indexes showed that the CAMCOG-R is a reliable and valid instrument, which can generally avoid a ceiling effect. The study findings confirm the importance of specifying the normative data by age and educational level.
修订版剑桥认知测验（CAMCOG）广泛应用于临床、流行病学和研究，但西班牙人群中尚未建立年龄和教育水平的常模分数。
对居住在加利西亚地区、年龄在50至97岁之间的730名社区成年成员进行了CAMCOG-R测试。初步筛查初步确定了认知障碍和抑郁症状。最终样本包括643名认知健康的成年人。使用了以下工具：一份关于社会人口统计学和临床数据的问卷、查尔森合并症指数、简易精神状态检查表、蒙特利尔认知评估量表（MoCA）、劳顿和布罗迪指数、老年抑郁量表简版以及CASP-19生活质量量表。
CAMCOG-R的内部一致性值与原始量表相似。MoCA与CAMCOG-R之间的收敛效度良好，CASP-19与CAMCOG-R之间的区分效度高于推荐值。计算了年龄和教育水平的百分位数和四分位间距。
心理测量指标表明，CAMCOG-R是一种可靠且有效的工具，通常可以避免天花板效应。研究结果证实了按年龄和教育水平指定常模数据的重要性。
