There is a preponderance of research on the neuropsychology of the various dementias. There are also direct comparisons between two or more dementias available in the literature. This paper sought to summarize the most recent literature, primarily from 1990 through mid-1996, including recent reviews of the literature from previous decades. The purpose was to provide, in one location, a summary of neuropsychological (i.e., cognitive, motor, and psychiatric) characteristics of major noninfectious, progressive dementias and depression of middle and late adulthood. It is hoped that this review, particularly a summary table provided, will serve as a guide in the differential diagnosis of the dementias by clinicians. In addition to Alzheimer's disease, vascular dementias, Parkinson's disease, Lewy body dementia, Huntington's disease, and frontal lobe dementia, the impact of depression on cognitive functioning is covered given the frequency with which neuropsychologists are asked to differentiate depression from primary dementia.
关于各种痴呆症的神经心理学已有大量研究。文献中也有对两种或更多种痴呆症的直接比较。本文旨在总结最新的文献，主要是1990年至1996年年中的文献，包括对前几十年文献的近期综述。目的是在一个地方提供主要非传染性、进行性痴呆症以及中老年期抑郁症的神经心理学（即认知、运动和精神方面）特征的总结。希望这篇综述，特别是所提供的总结表，能为临床医生在痴呆症的鉴别诊断中提供指导。除了阿尔茨海默病、血管性痴呆、帕金森病、路易体痴呆、亨廷顿病和额叶痴呆外，鉴于神经心理学家经常被要求区分抑郁症和原发性痴呆，本文还涵盖了抑郁症对认知功能的影响。
