Abstract

R E S U M E N

Objetivo: El Numerical Activities of Daily-Living-Financial (NADL-F) es un Nuevo test para evaluar la capacidad financiera en el contexto del envejecimiento cognitivo. El presente estudio tiene como objetivo determinar las características psicométricas de la versión portuguesa del NADL-F e identificar la relación de la capacidad financiera con las diferentes variables sociodemográficas, clínicas y neuropsicológicas. Metodología: La muestra fue constituida por 16 participantes, organizados en dos grupos: Perturbación Neurocognitiva Ligera (n=11) y Perturbación Neurocognitiva Mayor (n=5). A todos los participantes fueran administrados el NADL-F, el Addenbrooke’s Cognitive Examination, el INECO Frontal Screening, la sub prueba de Aritmética de la Wechsler Adult Inteligence Scale-III,el Instrumental Activities of Daily Living y la Geriatric Depression Scale. Resultados: La versión portuguesa del NADL-F presentó buena aceptabilidad, con datos perdidos abajo de 10% y efectos de piso y teto debajo de 80%. Reveló una consistencia interna razonable (alfa de Chronbach=.791). Todos los dominios de la escala se correlacionan significativamente con el valor total de la prueba y se encontraran correlaciones interdominios. En complemento, fueran obtenidas correlaciones entre el NADL-F y las diferentes pruebas de evaluación neuropsicológica y variables sociodemográficas continuas. Conclusión: Este estudio de la versión portuguesa del NADL-F, revela características psicométricas promisoras para la evaluación especifica de la capacidad financiera en contexto de la Perturbación Neurocognitiva Ligera y Mayor.

Aim: The Numerical Activities of Daily-Living-Financial (NADL-F) is a new test to assess financial capacity in the context of cognitive aging. The present study aims to determine the psychometric characteristics of the Portuguese version of NADL-F and identify a relationship of financial capacity with different sociodemographic, clinical and neuropsychological variables. Methods: The sample consisted of 16 participants, organized into two groups: Mild Neurocognitive Disorder (n = 11) and Major Neurocognitive Disorder (n = 5). All participants were applied NADL-F, the Addenbrooke's Cognitive Examination, the INECO Frontal Screening, the Arithmetic task from the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-III, the Instrumental Activities of Daily Living and the Geriatric Depression Scale. Results: The Portuguese version of NADL-F showed good acceptability, with missing data below 10% and ceiling and floor effects below 80%. Revealed a reasonable internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha = .791). All domains of the scale correlated significantly with the total value of the test and inter domain correlations were found. As a complement, correlations were obtained between the NADL-F and the different neuropsychological assessment tests and continuous sociodemographic variables. Conclusion: This study of the Portuguese version of NADL-F reveals promising psychometric characteristics for the specific assessment of financial capacity in the context of Mild and Major Neurocognitive Disorder.

Objetivo: O Numerical Activities of Daily-Living-Financial (NADL-F) é um novo teste para avaliar a capacidade financeira em contexto de envelhecimento cognitivo. O presente estudo tem como objetivo determinar as características psicométricas da versão portuguesa do NADL-F e identificar a relação da capacidade financeira com as diferentes variáveis sociodemográficas, clínicas e neuropsicológicas. Metodologia: A amostra foi constituída por 16 participantes, organizados em dois grupos: Perturbação Neurocognitiva Ligeira (n=11) e Perturbação Neurocognitiva Major (n=5). A todos os participantes foram aplicados o NADL-F, o Addenbrooke’s Cognitive Examination, o INECO Frontal Screening, a Sub-prova da Aritmética da Wechsler Adult Inteligence Scale-III, o Instrumental Activities of Daily Living e a Geriatric Depression Scale. Resultados: A versão portuguesa do NADL-F mostrou boa aceitabilidade, com dados ausentes abaixo de 10% e efeitos de teto e piso abaixo de 80%. Revelou uma consistência interna razoável (alfa de Chronbach=.791). Todos os domínios da escala correlacionaram-se significativamente com o valor total da prova e foram encontradas correlações interdomínios. Como complemento, foram obtidas correlações entre o NADL-F e as diferentes provas de avaliação neuropsicológica e variáveis sociodemográficas contínuas. Conclusão: Este estudo da versão portuguesa do NADL-F revela características psicométricas promissoras para a avaliação específica da capacidade financeira no contexto da Perturbação Neurocognitiva Ligeira e Major.
