The latent factor structure of the Dutch version of the Wechsler Memory Scale-Fourth Edition (WMS-IV-NL) was examined with a series of confirmatory factor analyses. As part of the Dutch standardization, 1,188 healthy participants completed the WMS-IV-NL. Four models were tested for the Adult Battery (16-69 years; N = 699), and two models were tested for the Older Adult Battery (65-90 years; N = 489). Results corroborated the presence of three WMS-IV-NL factors in the Adult Battery consisting of Auditory Memory, Visual Memory, and Visual Working Memory. A two-factor model (consisting of Auditory Memory and Visual Memory) provided the best fit for the data of the Older Adult Battery. These findings provide evidence for the structural validity of the WMS-IV-NL, and further support the psychometric integrity of the WMS-IV.
通过一系列验证性因素分析,对荷兰版韦氏记忆量表第四版(WMS-IV-NL)的潜在因素结构进行了检验。作为荷兰标准化的一部分,1188名健康参与者完成了WMS-IV-NL测试。对成人版量表(16至69岁;N = 699)测试了四种模型,对老年成人版量表(65至90岁;N = 489)测试了两种模型。结果证实成人版量表中存在由听觉记忆、视觉记忆和视觉工作记忆组成的三个WMS-IV-NL因素。一个双因素模型(由听觉记忆和视觉记忆组成)对老年成人版量表的数据拟合最佳。这些发现为WMS-IV-NL的结构效度提供了证据,并进一步支持了WMS-IV的心理测量完整性。
