A simple performance test was developed and used to evaluate a sample of psychiatric geriatric patients on their capacity for self-care. Evaluations were made by asking the patient to demonstrate certain essential activities of daily living. The objective test, compared with patients' subjective reports, was found to be a more valid measuring instrument of functional impairment and more useful as a diagnostic and prognostic tool Test scores correlated with independent clinical assessments of mental status and physical conditions, as well as with short-term outcome of hospitalization. The scale is easy and quick to administer and has many applications for the treatment and management planning of patients.
开发了一项简单的性能测试，并用于评估一组老年精神病患者的自我护理能力。通过要求患者展示某些日常生活中的基本活动来进行评估。与患者的主观报告相比，客观测试被发现是功能损害更有效的测量工具，并且作为诊断和预后工具更有用。测试分数与精神状态和身体状况的独立临床评估以及住院短期结果相关。该量表易于实施且快速，在患者的治疗和管理规划中有许多应用。
