Abstract
El mantenimiento de las funciones cognitivas, en concreto la memoria, es una preocupación constatada en distintas edades, sobre todo en los mayores, pero también en adultos que ponen a prueba su memoria en la vida cotidiana y no renuncian a tratar de mejorarla. Si una persona manifiesta que tiene dificultades para recordar, se dice que se está quejando de su memoria. El término más asociado a esta manifestación es el de quejas subjetivas de memoria (QSM). El concepto engloba: el juicio de la persona sobre su rendimiento de memoria, la subjetividad del mismo, y el objeto de la queja (los llamados olvidos cotidianos). Las QSM se incluyen como criterio diagnóstico en determinados cuadros clínicos como el Deterioro Cognitivo Leve (DCL) (Petersen et al., 2014) y el Trastorno Neurocognitivo Leve (DSM 5), pero ya estaban presentes en entidades clínicas de hace más de 30 años (Crook et al., 1986). Recientemente se ha defendido una terminología nueva, el declive cognitivo subjetivo (Jessen et al., 2014)...
The maintenance of cognitive functions, especially memory, is an ascertained concern in different ages, especially in elderly, but also in middle-aged people that test their memory in daily life and do not give up trying to improve it. If a person recognizes that he/she has difficulties in remembering it is said that he is complaining about his memory. The term most associated with this manifestation is “subjective memory complaints” (SMC). The concept includes: a persońs judgment about the performance of his memory; the subjectivity of the same one; and the object of the complaint, the so called “daily forgetfulness”. SMC are included as a criterion in clinical diagnosis such as Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) (Petersen et to., 2014) and Mild Neurocognitive Disorder (DSM 5), but they were present in clinical entities more than 30 years ago (Crook et al., 1986). Recently some important studies have changed the term SMC to “subjective cognitive decline” (Jessen et al., 2014)...
