Implication

Randomized trial evaluates cognitive assessment tool effectiveness in Indonesian-speaking individuals, suggesting improved diagnosis of language disorders.

Key Points

This study aims to develop and validate a culturally relevant test for assessing semantic associations in neurodegenerative conditions.
Developed INSANI using adapted semantic association tasks across class membership, part-whole, and contiguity domains.
Evaluated content validity through expert review using the content validity index (CVI).
Conducted a field study with 300 healthy Indonesian-speaking adults to assess construct validity with confirmatory factor analysis (CFA).
Of 38 initial items, 33 were retained after expert content validation.
CFA supported a refined 7-item model demonstrating good construct validity across semantic domains.
The final instrument showed moderate internal consistency and high comprehensibility.
