This study presents data on the factor structure, reliability, and discriminant validity of the Metamemory in Adulthood (MIA) questionnaire in a Dutch sample of 1,899 normal and healthy participants aged 24 to 86 years. The factor structure of the Dutch MIA corresponded with that of the original MIA. The Strategy scale could be divided into two subscales: External and Internal Memory Strategies. The number of items on the MIA could be reduced by 34% without loss of the factor structure or lowering of the internal consistency of the subscales. Data on the relation of the abridged MIA with age, sex, education, depression, anxiety, and subjective health are presented. The study supports the cross-national use of the MIA as a research and clinical instrument for the evaluation of subjective memory functioning.
本研究呈现了关于成年期元记忆（MIA）问卷的因子结构、信度和区分效度的数据，该问卷以1899名年龄在24至86岁的荷兰正常健康参与者为样本。荷兰版MIA的因子结构与原版MIA一致。策略量表可分为两个子量表：外部记忆策略和内部记忆策略。MIA的项目数量可减少34%，而不会损失因子结构或降低子量表的内部一致性。文中还给出了简化版MIA与年龄、性别、教育程度、抑郁、焦虑和主观健康之间关系的数据。该研究支持在跨国研究中使用MIA作为评估主观记忆功能的研究和临床工具。
