S-CRIq: the online short version of the Cognitive Reserve Index Questionnaire.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The wide use of the term Cognitive Reserve (CR) is in need of a clear and shared definition of its concept and of the development of new tools, quick and easy to use and updated for the people of today. This study describes the online short CRIq (s-CRIq), the new shorter version of the CRIq, following an item analysis revision, and compares the data distribution of different samples.

Methods

The s-CRIq was administered online to 435 people while another 440 filled out the s-CRIq in self-administration. A further 588 participants had been administered the original paper-and-pencil long CRIq and 344 the online long CRIq.

Results

The major difference in the databases of s-CRIq versus the long versions is an increased score in education and in leisure activity.
