Abstract
Rating scales for the assessment of behavior in geriatric patients are reviewed in two categories: 1) specific, and 2) nonspecific for geriatric populations. The advantages of each are discussed. The choice must be left to the rater's judgment in view of his investigative requirements.This publication has 31 references indexed in Scilit:
