Abstract
A version of the Geriatric Mental State Schedule, which is a standardized questionnaire to assess the mental state of the elderly, has been adapted to be administered by microcomputer. The system is described and advantages of the technique are discussed, comparing it with the former pencil-and-paper version of the schedule. The hardware used and software developed are described, and a pilot study, assessing it in use on a small group of patients, is outlined. Further developments of the system are considered.
