RESUMO
The Prospective and Retrospective Memory Questionnaire (PRMQ) has been shown to assess subjective memory and to have acceptable reliability and factorial, predictive and concurrent validity. However, the PRMQ has never been administered to a probability sample survey representative of all ages in adulthood, nor have previous studies controlled for factors that are known to influence metamemory, such as affective status. This study, the PRMQ was applied in a survey adopting a probabilistic three-stage cluster sample representative of the population of São Paulo, Brazil, according to sex, age (20- 80 years), and economic status (n=1042). After excluding subjects who had conditions that impair memory (depression, anxiety, used psychotropics, and/or had neurological/psychiatric disorders), in the remaining 664 individuals: a) applied confirmatory factor analyses to test competing models of the latent structure of the PRMQ; b) studied effects of sex, age, schooling and economic status on prospective and retrospective memory complaints. The model with the best fit had the same tripartite structure (general memory factor and two orthogonal prospective and retrospective memory factors). Women complained more of general memory slips, especially those in the first 5 years after menopause, and there were more complaints of prospective than retrospective memory, except in participants with lower family income.
