Assessment of Cognitive Flexibility in the Elderly: Evidence for the Validity of the CAMBIOS Test
This study aims to accomplish two objectives: (1) To analyze the performance of Cognitive Flexibility (CF) in order to establish normative values in older adults, and (2) to evaluate the external validity evidence of the CAMBIOS Test in the older population from the Rio de la Plata region.

| description | This study aims to accomplish two objectives: (1) To analyze the performance of Cognitive Flexibility (CF) in order to establish normative values in older adults, and (2) to evaluate the external validity evidence of the CAMBIOS Test in the older population from the Rio de la Plata region. An intentional non-probabilistic sample of 200 participants aged 60 to 85 from Mar del Plata divided into two groups was evaluated: younger, on one hand, and middle-aged older adults, on the other hand. Concurrent validity evidence of the CAMBIOS Test with a computerized CF task and criterion-related validity evidence associated with age were presented. Performance differences in CF were observed based on age. The scores in the age-associated CF level were equivalent between both instruments. The CAMBIOS Test proved to be useful for assessing CF, enabling the development of normative values for the regional older adult population, discriminated by age subgroups in the aging process. |

Este estudio propone dos objetivos: (1) analizar el desempeño de la Flexibilidad Cognitiva (FC) y establecer valores normativos en las personas mayores y (2) evaluar las evidencias de validez externa del Test CAMBIOS en la población rioplatense de personas mayores. Se evaluó una muestra no probabilística intencional de 200 participantes de 60 a 85 años de edad de Mar del Plata, distribuidos en dos grupos: mayores jóvenes y mayores intermedios. Se presentan evidencias de validez concurrente del Test CAMBIOS con una tarea informatizada de FC y evidencias de validez de criterio asociado a la edad. Según la edad, se evidenciaron diferencias en el desempeño en FC. Las puntuaciones en el nivel de FC, asociado a la edad, resultaron equivalentes entre ambos instrumentos. El Test CAMBIOS resultó útil para evaluar la FC, posibilitando la elaboración de valores normativos para la población regional de personas mayores, discriminado por subgrupos de edad en el envejecimiento.
