Abstract

Introduction: The main purpose of this research is develop the Turkish version of the BNT long form (consist of 60 items) [BNT-60 (TR)] and to determine the normative data for Turkish healthy geriatric population. BNT is a neuropsychological test which was widely used to measure naming disorders associated with a variety of neuropathological events. This research consists of two stages. In the stage of pilot study, adaptation of test was completed and BNT-60 (TR) version was developed; and in the stage of normative study, normative data was collected and norm determination was completed. Methods: Ninety healthy and volunteer elderly were participated in pilot study and 317 were in normative study. Three screening tests called Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MOCA), Functional Activities Questionnaire (FAQ) and Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) were administered for participant selection. BNT-60 (TR) was applied to participants who meet the inclusion criteria. Results: According to 5 (age) x 2 (gender) x 3 (education) factorial ANOVA results, main effects of age and education level on BNT-60 (TR) total score were found statistically significant. Then according to MANOVA results, main effects of age and education level on BNT-60 (TR) sub scores were found statistically significant. On the other hand, main effect of gender was not significant on BNT-60 (TR) scores. The age and BNT-60 (TR) total scores were negatively correlated. This results consistent with other normative studies of BNT in the literature. Conclusion: Finally, BNT-60 (TR) is adopted for Turkish culture, determined normative data and a test which is evaluating naming ability of the older adults was put into use.

Özet

Amaç: Bu araştırmanın amacı, Boston Adlandırma Testi’nin 60 maddelik uzun formunun Türkçe versiyonunu [BAT-60 (TR)] oluşturmak ve 60 yaş ve üstü sağlıklı Türk yaşlı yetişkinler için norm değerlerini belirlemektir. BAT çeşitli nöropatolojik durumlarla bağlantılı adlandırma bozukluğunu ölçmek üzere yaygın olarak kullanılan tanınmış bir nöropsikolojik testtir. Bu araştırma iki aşamadan oluşmuştur. İlk aşama olan pilot çalışma kapsamında test maddelerinin uyarlaması yapılmış, BAT-60 (TR) versiyonu oluşturulmuş ve ikinci aşamada norm değerleri belirlenmiştir. Yöntem: Araştırmanın pilot çalışmasına 90, norm belirleme çalışmasına 317 gönüllü sağlıklı yaşlı yetişkin katılmıştır. Katılımcıların seçiminde Montreal Bilişsel Değerlendirme Ölçeği (MOBİD), İşlevsel Faaliyetler Anketi (İFA) ve Geriatrik Depresyon Ölçeği (GDÖ) olmak üzere üç tarama testi kullanılmıştır. Dahil edilme kriterlerini karşılayan katılımcılara BAT60 (TR) uygulanmıştır. Bulgular: 5 (yaş) x 2 (cinsiyet) x 3 (eğitim) faktörlü ANOVA sonucunda, yaş ve eğitim düzeyinin BAT-60 (TR) genel puanı üzerindeki temel etkisi ile MANOVA sonucunda, yaş ve eğitim düzeyinin BAT-60 (TR) alt puanları üzerindeki temel etkisi istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bulunmuştur. Buna karşın, cinsiyetin BAT-60 (TR) puanları üzerindeki temel etkisi anlamlı değildir. Yaş ile BAT-60 (TR) genel puanı arasında negatif bir ilişki olduğu gösterilmiştir. Bu araştırmanın bulguları, BAT’ın diğer kültürlerde yapılmış literatürdeki norm çalışmalarıyla uyumludur. Sonuç: Sonuç olarak, BAT-60 (TR) kültürümüze uyarlanmış, normları belirlenmiş, yaşlı yetişkinlerin adlandırma becerisini değerlendirmede kullanılabilecek bir nöropsikolojik test kullanıma sunulmuştur.
