Abstract

Background: Assessment of cognitive function is essential to identify the impact of brain aging, disease or injury on individuals. The Short Form Cognitive Function Scale is a brief instrument, easy to use in clinical and research settings with simple interpretation. However, its psychometric properties have not been confirmed in the general Mexican population. The aim of this study was to determine the psychometric properties of the Short Form Cognitive Function Scale in the general Mexican population.

Methods: An instrumental design was conducted with 600 participants. Analyses were performed to evaluate factor structure (exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis), reliability (internal consistency), measurement invariance, construct validity (convergent and divergent) and Know-Groups Validity.

Results: A unifactorial structure of 8 items was verified with an internal consistency of α = 0.945 and a McDonald Omega index of Ω = 0.946. Measurement invariance was confirmed (ΔCFI & TLI ≤ 0.01; ΔRMSEA & SRMR ≤ 0.015), with respect to gender, age groups and geographic area of residence. Finally, the Short Form Cognitive Function Scale showed adequate convergent validity with the Subjective Well-Being variable (r =.507, p <.001), divergent with the GAD 5 (r = -.517, p <.001), and discriminant between younger and older participants (t = -5.304, p <.001).

Conclusions: The Short Form Cognitive Function Scale version for the general Mexican population presented adequate psychometric properties that make it a valid and reliable instrument for use in non-clinical and research settings in Mexico.

患者报告了认知功能量表的结果：一种心理测量评估。

背景：认知功能评估对于确定脑老化、疾病或损伤对个体的影响至关重要。简式认知功能量表是一种简短的工具，易于在临床和研究环境中使用，解释简单。然而，其心理测量特性尚未在普通墨西哥人群中得到证实。本研究的目的是确定一般墨西哥人口的短形式认知功能量表的心理测量特性。方法：采用仪器设计，共600人。对因子结构（探索性和验证性因子分析）、信度（内部一致性）、测量不变性、结构效度（收敛性和发散性）和知群效度进行分析。结果：8项的单因子结构得到验证，内部一致性为α = 0.945， McDonald Omega指数为Ω = 0.946。证实测量不变性(ΔCFI & TLI≤0.01；ΔRMSEA & SRMR≤0.015)，性别、年龄组和居住地理区域。最后，简式认知功能量表与主观幸福感变量（r =）有足够的收敛效度。507， p结论：墨西哥普通人群的短形式认知功能量表具有足够的心理测量特性，使其成为墨西哥非临床和研究环境中使用的有效和可靠的工具。

期刊介绍： Health and Quality of Life Outcomes is an open access, peer-reviewed, journal offering high quality articles, rapid publication and wide diffusion in the public domain. Health and Quality of Life Outcomes considers original manuscripts on the Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQOL) assessment for evaluation of medical and psychosocial interventions. It also considers approaches and studies on psychometric properties of HRQOL and patient reported outcome measures, including cultural validation of instruments if they provide information about the impact of interventions. The journal publishes study protocols and reviews summarising the present state of knowledge concerning a particular aspect of HRQOL and patient reported outcome measures. Reviews should generally follow systematic review methodology. Comments on articles and letters to the editor are welcome.
