The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships of depression and health to the perceptions of memory capacity, change, locus, and strategy in cognitively impaired residents (N = 55) of nursing homes. All subjects had Mini-Mental State Exam (MMSE) scores between 15 and 23. Subjects generally had low perceived health and mild depression. Pearson correlations between age and strategy (-.31), depression and capacity (-.44), and depression and change (-.41) aspects of metamemory were statistically significant. Division of impaired residents of nursing homes into cognitive level groups (mild and severe impairment) indicated significant group differences in use of over-the-counter medications, total memory strategies, and internal strategies. Overall, the set of variables accounted for 8% to 18% of the total variance in metamemory subscales.
本研究旨在探讨疗养院认知功能受损居民（N = 55）的抑郁、健康状况与记忆容量、变化、位置及策略认知之间的关系。所有受试者的简易精神状态检查表（MMSE）得分在15至23分之间。受试者普遍健康认知较低且有轻度抑郁。年龄与策略（-.31）、抑郁与容量（-.44）以及抑郁与元记忆变化（-.41）之间的皮尔逊相关性具有统计学意义。将疗养院认知受损居民分为认知水平组（轻度和重度受损），结果显示在非处方药使用、总体记忆策略和内部策略的使用上存在显著的组间差异。总体而言，这组变量占元记忆子量表总方差的8%至18%。
