目的探讨人口统计学变量对Stroop颜色和文字测验(SCWT)成绩的影响，为不同文化程度的老年人提供标准化信息。方法对564名社区志愿者进行色词测验，年龄60~90岁，学历0~25年。结果年龄、教育程度和性别与SCWT的三个页面上的表现显著相关，根据结果，SCWT常模按年龄(四个重叠表)、教育程度(三个层次)进行分层。结论在本研究中，有关SCWT的规范信息是从受教育程度不同的老年人群中获得的。SCWT在受教育程度较低的老年人中似乎更有用，并可用于未来老年人群的跨文化比较。版权所有(C)2008 John Wiley&Sons，Ltd.
Objective The purpose of this study was to explore the effects of demographic variables on Stroop Color and Word Test (SCWT) performance in an educationally diverse elderly population and to provide normative information.Methods SCWT was administered to 564 community-dwelling volunteers aged 60-90 years with an educational history of from zero to 25 years of full-time education. People with serious neurological, medical and psychiatric disorders (including dementia) were excluded.Results Age, education and gender were found to be significantly associated with performance on all three pages of the SCWT, Based on the results obtained, SCWT norms were stratified by age (four overlapping tables), education (three strata). and gender.Conclusions In the present study, normative information on SCWT was obtained from an educationally diverse elderly population. SCWT would appear to be more useful in poorly educated elderly, and could be used in future cross-cultural comparisons of geriatric populations. Copyright (C) 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
