2.3.1. Self-Report Questionnaires

The materials included two psychometrically self-report questionnaires:

(1) Depression Anxiety Stress Scales (DASS-21), which consists of 21 questions with 7 items for each scale (e.g., for anxiety, "I feel I am close to panic"; for depression, "I cannot experience any positive feelings"; for stress, "I find hard to wind down"); all subscales are rated on a four-point Likert scale ranging from 0 (never) to 3 (almost always). Higher scores indicate more severe emotional distress (max–min total score: 21–0) [60];

(2) The Prospective and Retrospective Memory Questionnaire (PRMQ), which consists of 16 items on a five-point scale (e.g., for prospective memory, "Do you decide to do something in a few minutes and then forget to do it?"; for retrospective memory, "Do you forget something that someone told you a few minutes before?"). Higher total scores indicate more frequent self-reported memory difficulties (max–min total score: 80–16) [61].
