考察了言语智力、性别、年龄和受教育程度对Rey听觉言语学习测验(RAVLT)的影响。RAVLT是一种广泛使用的评估记忆功能障碍的工具。健康志愿者114名，年龄在40岁到84岁之间。在最佳拟合回归模型中，言语智力和性别在RAVLT的每一次学习试验中的表现差异中占了相当大的比例。在试验1和试验2中，年龄与成绩有关，而教育与成绩无关。更高的语言智商与更好的表现相关，而且女性的表现一直比男性更好。这些结果表明，许多报告衰老效应的测试实际上可能反映了所研究人群的言语智力和性别差异的异质性。因此，基于这种衰老效应的研究和临床结论应谨慎解读。
The effects of verbal intelligence, sex, age, and education on the Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test (RAVLT) were investigated. The RAVLT is a widely used instrument for assessing memory dysfunction. Healthy volunteers (N = 114) between the ages of 40 and 84 years participated. In the best-fitting regression model, verbal intelligence and sex accounted for a significant proportion of the variance in performance on every learning trial of the RAVLT. Age was related to performance only on Trials 1 and 2, and education was not related to performance. Higher verbal intelligence was associated with better performance and women performed consistently better than men. These results suggest that many tests reporting an aging effect may, in reality, be reflecting heterogeneity in verbal intelligence and sex differences in the populations studied. Therefore, research and clinical conclusions based on such aging effects should be interpreted with caution.
