Abstrakt: Rey’s Auditory Verbal Learning Test (RAVLT) assesses different aspects of verbal memory and learning. This test is often used in clinical, educational, and selection contexts. We adapted the Geffen et al’ version for Indonesia and here we present its psychometric properties. Two groups of healthy participants with varying ages (16-80) and education (from Elementary school to postgraduate alumni) included 492 persons for the validation, and 50 for the test-retest reliability part of the study with a 6-14-day interval. We tested the validity via its seven recall trials, based on theoretical constructs, and factor analyses. The test’s reliability via Cronbach’s alpha test, and test-retest The recall scores increased over trials A1 to A5. The expected position effect, primacy, and recency were found for A1 to A5. Factor analysis of Rey’s Auditory Verbal Learning Test revealed three memory constructs. The word “ibu (mother)” caused an anomaly in the position effect of the 15 words. Both Cronbach’s alpha and the test-retest corre lations increased from low A1 to satisfying A7. Carry-over results were found in the retest. The Indonesian version of Rey’s Auditory Verbal Learning Test is valid based on the position effect of the recall score and the three clusters covering different aspects of memorizing the items over the seven trials. The score of reliability is only moderate for the recall score, it might be due to the test-retest procedure. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
