Abstract

Introduction: The purpose of this study Standardization and Normalization Memory Scale Retrospective memory - prospective Crawford et al (2003) For students Fits Retrospective memory - prospective In Iranian culture. Method: The tool used to determine the size and amount Retrospective memory - prospective Made by Crawford et al (2003). Content validity of the by Psychology faculty approval and On a random sample of 382 students Implementation Payam Noor University of Urmia. Questions with appropriate statistical methods to analyze Amount validity and reliability, cut off point and Norm scores were determined. Results: The test results Kolmogorov - Smirnov The assumption of normality of the data by Retrospective memory – prospective Equal to 0/703 the Level (P  0/05) Not significant, Therefore we can say that The data obtained from the questionnaires distributed, Its distribution among the normal population. In addition, Test the Kaiser - Meyer – Avlkyn equivalent 0/77 and Bartlett test 1632/835 That level error, Smaller than for 0/01 Was significant.the amount Cronbach's alpha for whole questionnaire equivalent 0/83.
Conclusion: Test results show the high reliability.
