The present study aimed to provide normative data on a large sample of the elderly Italian population (N = 464; range of age = 49–94; range of education = 3–25) on both the word and the picture versions of a battery of free recall, cued recall, and recognition tests of memory. Results from multiple regression analyses showed that both age and education were significant predictors of performance. Therefore, norms were calculated taking into account these demographic variables. The availability of normative data based on a large sample will allow a more reliable use of the battery for clinical assessment in Italianspeaking dementia population.

Abstract

The present study aimed to provide normative data on a large sample of the elderly Italian population (N = 464; range of age = 49–94; range of education = 3–25) on both the word and the picture versions of a battery of free recall, cued recall, and recognition tests of memory. Results from multiple regression analyses showed that both age and education were significant predictors of performance. Therefore, norms were calculated taking into account these demographic variables. The availability of normative data based on a large sample will allow a more reliable use of the battery for clinical assessment in Italianspeaking dementia population.
