Abstract

The Behavior Rating Scale for Dementia provides a standardized, reliable measure that can be administered to caregivers of demented subjects. On the basis of the present study, the scale has been revised slightly. After additional studies in progress, the Behavior Rating Scale for Dementia will be available for general use in assessing a wide range of psychopathology in dementia.
