Abstract
MANY OLDER adults complain of memory loss, and some show demonstrable memory impairment. For individuals with memory impairment but preserved general intellect and activities of daily living, prognosis is uncertain. In some cases, this pattern of cognitive deficits may indicate the earliest symptoms of dementia. Others will have a more benign course.Keywords
