Abstract

Background Previous study showed that Trail Making Test, Stroop Test, Digit Span, and Five Point Test were developed as measures of executive functioning. The purpose of this study was to analyze the structural model of the four tests. Methods Participants were 490 adults (Females = 294, Males = 196), age between 16-80 years old. Years of education were stratified into 5 categories (0-6; 7-9; 10-12; 13-16; 17-22). Trail Making Test, Stroop Test, Digit Span, Five-Point Test were administered. Exploratory factor analysis was conducted to explore the constructs underlying the four tests. Result and Conclusions EFA showed that based on the variance of initial eigenvalues 4 factors are determined with a cumulative value = 69.03%. Factor 1 consisted Time-TMT A (0.839), Time-TMT B (0.743), unique responses of FPT (-0.698), and Time-Stroop Test (0.530). Factor 2 consisted DS-Backward (0.864), DS-Forward (0.776), DS-SQ (0.728). Factor 3 consisted FPT (0.931) and Error Stroop test (0.931). Factor 4 consisted Error TMT A (0.872) and Error TMT B (0.823). The current study provides four underlying constructs of the neuropsychological tests particularly the executive functioning domain. Keywords: Exploratory Factor Analysis, Neuropsychological test, Executive Functions
