The purpose of this study was to generate normative data for five tests of attention and executive functions (M-WCST, Stroop test, TMT, BTA, and SDMT), in a group of 322 Ecuadorian adults from Quito between the ages of 18 and 85.
Multiple regression analyzes taking into account age, education, and gender were used to generate the normative data.
Age and education were significantly related to test performance such that scores decreased with age and improved as a function of education. An online calculator is provided to generate normative test scores.
This is the first study that presents normative data for tests of executive functions and attention in an Ecuadorian adult population. This data will improve the clinical practice of neuropsychology and help to develop the field in the country.
本研究旨在为来自基多的 322 名 18 至 85 岁的厄瓜多尔成年人提供 5 项注意力和执行功能测试(M-WCST、Stroop 测试、TMT、BTA 和 SDMT)的常模数据。
采用多元回归分析,考虑年龄、教育和性别,生成常模数据。
年龄和教育与测试表现显著相关,表现为分数随年龄下降,随教育程度提高而提高。提供了一个在线计算器来生成常模测试分数。
这是第一项在厄瓜多尔成年人群中呈现执行功能和注意力测试常模数据的研究。这些数据将改善神经心理学的临床实践,并有助于该领域在该国的发展。
