Brief Summary

HYPOTHESIS: The Spanish version of the Everyday Cognition Battery Scale (ECB) is valid and reliable in the Spanish population. OBJECTIVES:

• Providing a validated scale in Spanish to evaluate daily cognition in older adults. SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES:
• Translating the original English version of the ECB into Spanish.
• Adapting the scale to the sociocultural context of Spain.
• Checking the psychometric characteristics (reliability and validity) of the translated version . STUDY DESIGN: Cross-sectional descriptive study. Permission to use the ECB scale will be requested to the author, Allaire JC. Translation and adaptation of the scale. Administration of the four tests of the ECB to the individuals participating in the study. Administration of the Rapid Evaluation of Cognitive Functions (RECF) and Lawton and Brody scales. Analysis of the psychometric characteristics of the translated version. The protocol has been authorized by the Ethics Committee of the Salamanca health area to make the project possible.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Everyday cognition

  The daily cognition battery called "Everyday Cognition Battery (ECB)" will be used. The ECB assesses cognitive competence in three instrumental activities of daily life: use of medication, management of finances and nutrition and meal preparation. Within the ECB, there are 4 tests, each designed to assess a single cognitive ability: ECB Inductive Reasoning Test or ECU Knowledge Test or Knowledge Test, ECB Computation Span Test (Working Memory) or Amplitude Test Calculation and ECB Recognition Test (Declarative Memory) or Recognition Test (Declarative Memory). For the present study we have selected the latter since it evaluates memory, which led us to think about the importance of memory in the elderly, both measured objectively and subjectively. Within the ECB Recognition Test (Declarative Memory) we have focused on the tests that valued the use of medication.
