Abstract:
This systematic review aimed to evaluate the psychometric properties of existing self-perception of aging (SPA) measurement instruments, in accordance with the Consensus-based Standards for the selection of health Measurement Instruments (COSMIN) guidelines. Literature searches were conducted across nine databases. Methodological quality was assessed using the COSMIN Risk of Bias Checklist, and evidence synthesis utilized the modified GRADE approach. A total of twenty-eight studies, evaluating thirteen SPA measurement instruments, were included. Three instruments were classified as Category C and are not recommended for use. The remaining ten SPA instruments were classified as Category B, indicating a need for further validation. Future research should prioritize the use of standardized development and validation methodologies to enhance the psychometric properties of SPA instruments, thereby enabling their more reliable application in clinical and community settings.
