正常衰老的执行缺陷，如计划，组织或决策方面的缺陷，可能会影响老年人的日常生活功能。因此，老年人的执行功能似乎不仅在认知方面，而且在行为领域的研究也很有趣。本研究旨在通过执行障碍问卷调查正常老年人的行为执行障碍问题的性质。因子分析表明，五个解释因素可以从DEX：意向性（因子1），干扰管理（因子2），抑制（因子3），计划（因子4），和社会调节（因子5），这表明不同的组件可能是正常老化的行为执行障碍症状的基础。这些因素之间的关系和执行功能的神经心理测量也作了简要的探讨。(C)2003年爱思唯尔公司All rights reserved.
Executive deficits of normal aging such as deficits in planning, organization or decision making are likely to affect elderly individuals in their daily life functioning. Therefore, executive functioning in aging seems to be interesting to study not only in cognitive terms but also in relation to the behavioral area. This pilot study aimed to investigate the nature of behavioral dysexecutive problems in a sample of normal elderly adults as measured by the Dysexecutive Questionnaire. Factor analysis showed that five interpretable factors could be derived from the DEX: intentionality (factor 1), interference management (factor 2), inhibition (factor 3), planning (factor 4), and social regulation (factor 5), suggesting that different components may underlie the behavioral dysexecutive symptoms of normal aging. The relationship between these factors and neuropsychological measures of Executive Functions were also briefly explored. (C) 2003 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
