[Presentation of the AGP and observations on this evaluation system of symptomatology in gerontopsychiatry].

The first part of the present paper concerns the presentation of the AGP-System. The authors formulate several remarks concerning some items of the 6 sheets of the System, and they stress its advantage over other scales in geriatric psychiatry. Nevertheless, the AGP-System is little used. Therefore, the authors consider that the integration into the AMDP-System of the two specific AGP scales could contribute to an increased success of the AGP-System.
