Abstract: This study focuses on the cognitive decline in menopausal women. The sample size for this study consists of 100 women. The women included in this study completed their menstruation cycle. The age range for women in this study is 40 to 50 years. The sample size was divided into two groups. One group consisted of 50 women who had their menopause for one year and other group consisted of 50 women who had their menopause for 5 years. In this study, Wisconsin card sorting tests (WCST) was used for the assessment of cognitive flexibility. Stroop test was used for the assessment of selective attention. Rey’s auditory verbal learning test (RAVLT) was used to assess of verbal memory. The result of the study demonstrated significant differences between both of groups. Women who were menopausal for one year performed better on Stroop test. The study showed similar results for RAVLT as well. For WCST, the result showed significant differences between the two groups in 11 WCST variables i.e., total correct, total errors, error percentage, perseverative error, perseverative error percentage, non-perseverative error, non- perseverative percentage, conceptual level response, conceptual level response percentage, category completed and learning to learn.
