Relation of Cognitive Functioning to Daily Living Skills in a Geriatric Population
Keyword(s):
A modified version of the Community Competence Scale was administered along with the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale—Revised (WAIS—R) to 40 geriatric patients with suspected dementia. Scores on the Competence Scale, a measure of functional daily living skills, were correlated .72 with Full Scale IQs and .77 with Verbal IQs and moderately correlated (.55) with Performance IQs. A number of significant correlations were found between WAIS—R subtests and subscales of the competence instrument. Means and standard deviations for the 10 Competence subscale and total scores are presented.
