Abstract
The current study presents data on the reliability, convergent, content and factorial validity of the MultifactorialMemory Questionnaire [MMQ] in a Chilean sample of 740 normal and healthy participants aged 20 to81 years. The MMQ is a 56-item likert scale questionnaire divided into three dimensions: memory contentment,ability, and everyday strategies or aids used to remember information. The analysis indicates that theinstrument has content validity, factorial validity and internal reliability, similar to the data reported on theoriginal study of the instrument. Data of the relationship with sex, age, life satisfaction and subjective healthare also presented. The MMQ is a useful scale to evaluate metamemory in clinical and research settings.
