Abstract

The relationship between psychometric performance and regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) measurement in a series of patients suffering from presenile dementia is discussed. An evaluation of central concepts in the late Professor A.R. Luria's dynamic localization model for behavior determination is made. A new indirect measurement of regional cerebral metabolism (rCBF) is used. In general, support is obtained from Luria's model for the interpretation of the relation between psychometric results and the rCBF data.
