Abstract
In stepwise regression analyses with Independent Living Scales (ILS) summary and subscale scores as the dependent variables, 8 of 10 psychometric measures from our battery for older adults emerged as important predictors for 69 patients referred for clinical assessment. The Dementia Rating Scale (DRS) score entered first for 6/8 analyses. However, measures of confrontation naming, oral reading, verbal fluency, paragraph recall, visual perception, complex attention, and depression also added explanatory power. Multiple R s ranged from .66 to .88 except for the Social Adjustment subscale, which correlated only with the depression scale.
