Abstract

Thirty adults in a psychiatric day hospital were subjects in a study designed to examine the relationship between performance in social, occupational, and leisure spheres with neurological functioning and demographic variables. All subjects were administered the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale, the Southern California Sensory Integration Test, and Luria Nebraska Neuropsychological Battery. A rating scale adapted from the DSM III, Axis V as well as extensive chart reviews, were used to assess functional performance. This study revealed that very few neurological or demographic variables predicted the subjects performance in social, occupational, or leisure situations. Implications of these and other results are discussed.
