Résumé

El presente estudio contrasta el rendimiento en una prueba de recuerdo inmediato y demorado en dos poblaciones envejecidas sin trastornos neurológicos conocidos de contextos culturales diferentes. Participaron 191 personas, 97 cubanos y 94 españoles. El rango de edad estuvo entre 60 y 90 años (M = 70.6; DT = 6.8). Los sujetos fueron evaluados mediante una prueba de pares visuales asociados (PVA) inmediata y demorada 30 minutos. No se encontraron diferencias significativas en las respuestas correctas del recuerdo inmediato y demorado en función de la nacionalidad o el sexo de los participantes. La edad y el nivel de escolaridad afectaron al rendimiento en memoria inmediata y demorada. Menor edad y mayor nivel de escolaridad produjeron mejor rendimiento. La prueba PVA puede ser útil para evaluar la memoria en poblaciones de contextos culturales diferentes. La edad afectó negativamente al rendimiento en tareas de memoria inmediata y demorada en el envejecimiento sano. El nivel educacional podría ser un factor protector, asociado a la formación de la reserva cognitiva.
