Brief summary

The aim of this study was to determine the Turkish validity and reliability of ''The Working Memory Questionnaire'' developed by Dr. Vallat-Azouvi.

Detailed description

Working Memory refers to the temporary storage and exchange of information required for complex tasks such as language, understanding, learning, and reasoning. Working memory deficits are worse in people with advanced age and low education. In addition, working memory is impaired in children with traumatic brain injury, stroke, Alzheimer's disease, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. The aim of this study is to determine the Turkish version, validity, and reliability of ''The Working Memory Questionnaire''. 300 health people will include in the study. In order to determine the reliability of the scale, the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) will be used to determine the level of the relationship between the results of the first and second measurements. Cronbach's alpha coefficient will be used for the homogeneity of the questions in the scale. For construct validity, the correlation coefficient will be used to determine the agreement between the Turkish Version of Cognitive Failures Questionnaire and The Working Memory Questionnaire.
