Abstract

Assessing cognitive functions in illiterate people is a difficult task because most of the neuropsychological tests exploring episodic memory have been validated in formally educated people, are based on verbal material and, therefore, require a good knowledge of language. Two episodic memory tests (TNI93 and TMA93) designed to be used for cognitive impairment screening in illiterate people have been designed, then validated in a multicultural low-educated population. Four hundred and thirty seven subjects aged 60 and over, living in the Seine-Saint-Denis district, received a medical check up offered by the National Health Service and their episodic memory performance was examined with these screening tests. The performance obtained on these tests depends both on age and educational level, as expected. Normative data for screening purpose in population with low education and/or not fluent with the language of the examiner are presented.

[对老年文盲情景记忆的评估]。
评估文盲的认知功能是一项艰巨的任务,因为大多数探索情景记忆的神经心理学测试已经在受过正规教育的人身上得到了验证,这些测试基于口头材料,因此需要良好的语言知识。设计了两种情景记忆测试(TNI93和TMA93),用于文盲人群的认知障碍筛查,然后在多元文化低教育人群中进行验证。居住在塞纳-圣德尼地区的437名60岁及以上的受试者接受了国家卫生服务机构提供的医疗检查,并通过这些筛选测试检查了他们的情景记忆表现。正如预期的那样,在这些测试中获得的表现取决于年龄和教育水平。在低教育程度和/或不流利的考官的语言的人群筛选目的的规范性数据被提出。
