Description

The purpose of this study was to develop the working memory test used new and simple style paper test. First, we made the original version paper tests which were composed with new working memory tests following: new edition trail making task, high-middle-low task, mental rotation task, and etc. Next, these new tests were compared with the old working memory tests which were operation span task, readingspan task and etc. University students (N=85 )participated in both tests. The factor analysis of the original version paper test identified three factors labeled "switching attention function", " division and selective attention function ", and "control function". Based on the results from the structural equation modeling, there was positive and quite high correlation in its scores between the original working memory test and the other old working memory test. These results suggested that the original paper version test was simple, easy and efficient in substitution for the other old working memory test.
