The Multifactorial Memory Questionnaire (MMQ) is a well-validated participant-reported measure consisting of 57 items across three subscales assessing satisfaction with memory, self-perceived memory ability, and memory strategy use, respectively. Because short scales are often desired to accommodate clinical time constraints and reduce respondent burden, we created and evaluated 9-item versions of each subscale (MMQ-9).Methods: In Study 1, we used an optimization strategy to identify subsets of items that maximized subscale reliability in a sample of 560 adults ages 50-90. In Study 2, we examined psychometric properties of the MMQ-9 in an independent sample of 638 adults ages 51-95.Results: Internal consistency, test-retest reliability, and convergent and discriminant validity of each subscale met published criteria for good measurement properties. Confirmatory factor analysis validated the original factor structure. A hierarchical series of invariance models showed excellent fit, confirming robust measurement invariance across age, gender, and education.Conclusions: The shortened MMQ-9 is a reliable, valid, and invariant measure of metamemory in middle-aged and older adults.Clinical implications: The MMQ-9 is a reasonable instrument of choice when brief yet psychometrically strong measures of participant-reported memory are required for clinical assessment of patients with memory concerns.","PeriodicalId":10376,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Gerontologist","volume":" ","pages":"528-538"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142544118","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, direct translation of the AES into Chinese does not fit well into the Chinese cultural setting, so a structured and comprehensive revision is needed to obtain a high reliability and validity version of the scale.Methods: In this study, 436 adults aged ≥ 60 years from two communities in Beijing were assessed using a modified AES-S. The methodology included item analysis, exploratory factor analysis, and confirmatory factor analysis. The scale's validity was tested using the Temporal Experience of Pleasure Scale (TEPS) and Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE). Reliability assessment included retest reliability, internal consistency reliability, and split-half reliability.Results: The modified Apathy Evaluation Scale-Self-Assessment (AES-S-C) presented a first-order four-factor structure with higher reliability and validity than the original version within the Chinese older adult community.Conclusions: The revised AES-S-C is more suitable for the Chinese older adults in community settings.Clinical implications: This self-rated scale is suitable for screening apathy among older adults in community or nursing facilities, aiding in the identification of cognitive impairment and promoting mental health.","PeriodicalId":10376,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Gerontologist","volume":" ","pages":"494-502"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141757536","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Repeated-measures ANOVA allowed for the analysis of differences between the vignettes that comprise CAI-Health.Results: The internal consistency results were acceptable, and no items were proposed for elimination. A repeated-measures ANOVA revealed that the vignettes were unexpectedly equivalent.

Four cross-sectional studies were identified that allowed inferences about the validity of mindfulness measures. A qualitative review indicated that convergent validity with other measures varied with sample heterogeneity and cognitive impairment. Merely one MBI included self-reported trait mindfulness, however without reporting sample-specific validity or reliability.Conclusions: Despite efforts to implement MBIs in PwD, information on basic methodological psychometric issues is minimal. Future studies ought to address the validity and reliability of self-reported mindfulness in detail across different stages of dementia.Clinical implications: Results of MBIs need to be considered cautiously.

Eight HBPC psychologists piloted the adapted MBC approach with 53 Veterans.

Qualitative feedback was primarily positive, but participants noted challenges based on the nature of the presenting problem and Veteran-specific characteristics.Conclusions: Findings indicate that MBC can be utilized with appropriate HBPC Veterans and has the potential to benefit care.

Studies were eligible if they used RFS and included older adults. Studies were searched from 1993, the year RFS was first published. Electronic databases were searched (Scopus, PsycNET, and Web of Science), from which 44 eligible studies were identified.Results: Four themes were identified: i) predictive value of reminiscence functions regarding well-being, ii) increased frequency of teach/inform and death preparation functions in older adults, iii) key roles of reminiscence functions in coping with critical life events, iv) reminiscence-based interventions should promote positive memories.Conclusions: The RFS outcomes may improve reminiscence-based interventions, since the functions of reminiscence are key players in older adults daily life.Clinical implications: Reminiscence-based interventions should promote positive memories, which are associated with improved well-being.
