Predictors of perceived memory impairment were investigated in 40 elderly normal adults and 28 individuals with Alzheimer's disease. Measures of perceived memory impairment, global cognitive functioning, memory, use of memory strategies, memory strategy efficacy, and depressive symptomatology were obtained for all participants. The elderly normal and Alzheimer's disease groups did not differ in the extent to which they reported perceived memory impairment. For both participant groups, more frequent use of memory strategies and lower perceived memory strategy efficacy were significant predictors of perceived memory impairment. Depressive symptomatology was an additional, significant determinant of perceived memory impairment for the elderly normal group.
在40名正常老年人和28名阿尔茨海默病患者中，对感知记忆障碍的预测因素进行了研究。为所有参与者获取了感知记忆障碍、整体认知功能、记忆、记忆策略使用、记忆策略效果和抑郁症状的测量数据。正常老年人组和阿尔茨海默病组在报告感知记忆障碍的程度上没有差异。对于两组参与者，更频繁地使用记忆策略和更低的感知记忆策略效果是感知记忆障碍的显著预测因素。抑郁症状是正常老年人组感知记忆障碍的另一个重要决定因素。
