Development of a self-report measure of cognitive change: assessment of interpretability in two samples, people with HIV and people without HIV.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
aimThe overall aim of this study was to develop a method of measuring change in cognitive ability from the person's perspective.
methodsCognitive change items came from an item pool that was used to develop the Communicating Cognitive Concerns Questionnaire (C3Q). The change items were administered to a test sample of 211 people with HIV + and a sample of 484 people drawn from the general population (HIV- sample). Rasch analysis was used to identify items that formed a linear continuum and correlations with measures of related constructs were used to support the interpretability of the new measure.
resultsEleven of the original 12 change items fit the unidimensional Rasch model in both samples with a near similar ordering of the items. The average value for cognitive change of the HIV + sample was greater than that of the HIV- sample. Values on C3Q-Change correlated most highly (> 0.7) with current self-reported cognitive status and measures of depression and anxiety (> 0.6). The lowest correlation was with performance-based cognitive ability (r = 0.2).
conclusionThe items of C3Q-Change fit a strong measurement model and related to converging constructs in an expected way. Further work needs to be done to assess the meaning of self-reported cognitive change in relationship to measured change and to examine sources of differential item functioning.
