Introduction. Currently, there are standard and basic versions of the MoCA, the latter designed for those with lower educational achievements. Community-based normative data on these versions of the MoCA from Arabic populations are deficient, and there is little data demonstrating how both scales perform in comparison. We aim to obtain normative performances from both versions and equate the measures of both scales. Methods. Community-based recruitment of years of age. Participants underwent testing with both versions. Demographic data was collected with regard to age, gender, years of education, diabetes, and hypertension. Regression analysis was performed to determine significance of variables, and the circle-arc equating method was used to equate the two scores from each scale. Results. 311 participants were included in the study. The mean (sd) age was 45.8 (15.96), females were 184 (59.16%), and the duration of education was 12.7 (5.67) years. The mean scores on the MoCA-A and MoCA-B were 21.47 (4.53) and 24.37 (4.71) (), respectively. Multivariate regression showed significance of age and years of education in both versions (both variables with ). Correlation coefficient between the two scales was 0.77 (). The largest equated difference between both MoCA versions was four points in those scoring from 10-20 on the MoCA-A. Conclusion. We present normative data from a large Saudi Arabian community-based sample with two different MoCA tests, and an equating graph is presented to determine the corresponding expected performance between the two scales.

社区居住沙特阿拉伯人蒙特利尔认知评估的原始和基本版本的规范和等值数据

简介。目前，MoCA 有标准版和基本版，后者是为那些受教育程度较低的人设计的。来自阿拉伯人口的这些版本的 MoCA 的基于社区的规范数据不足，并且几乎没有数据可以证明这两种量表的表现如何。我们的目标是从两个版本中获得规范的表现，并将两个尺度的度量等同起来。方法。基于社区的招聘岁。参与者接受了两个版本的测试。收集了有关年龄、性别、受教育年限、糖尿病和高血压的人口统计数据。进行回归分析以确定变量的显着性，并使用圆弧等值法将每个量表的两个分数相等。结果。311 名参与者被纳入研究。平均 (sd) 年龄为 45.8 (15.96)，女性为 184 (59.16%)，教育年限为 12.7 (5.67) 年。MoCA-A 和 MoCA-B 的平​​均分分别为 21.47 (4.53) 和 24.37 (4.71) ()，分别。多元回归显示了两个版本的年龄和受教育年限的显着性（两个变量都具有）。两个量表的相关系数为0.77（）。两个 MoCA 版本之间最大的等效差异是在 MoCA-A 上得分为 10-20 的得分中的 4 分。结论。我们提供了来自沙特阿拉伯社区的大型样本的规范数据，其中包含两个不同的 MoCA 测试，并提供了一个等值图来确定两个量表之间的相应预期性能。
