چکیده    The present study evaluated subjective and objective cognitive measures as predictors of fluid intelligence in healthy older adults. we hypothesized that objective cognitive measures would predict fluid intelligence to a greater degree than self-reported cognitive functioning. ninety-three healthy older (>65 years old) community-dwelling adults participated. raven's advanced progressive matrices (rapm) were used to measure fluid intelligence,digit span sequencing (dss) was used to measure working memory,trail making test (tmt) was used to measure cognitive flexibility,design fluency test (dft) was used to measure creativity,and tower test (tt) was used to measure planning. the cognitive failures questionnaire (cfq) was used to measure subjective perceptions of cognitive functioning. rapm was correlated with dss,tt,and dft. when cfq was the only predictor,the regression model predicting fluid intelligence was not significant. when dss,tmt,dft,and tt were included in the model,there was a significant change in the model and the final model was also significant,with dft as the only significant predictor. the model accounted for approximately 20% of the variability in fluid intelligence. our findings suggest that the most reliable means of assessing fluid intelligence is to assess it directly. © 2017 mohammed k. shakeel and vina m. goghari.
