Abstract
A shortened version of the Clifton Assessment Procedures for the Elderly (CAPE) based on 2 of the subscales is described and evaluated in relation to the full scales and a measure of composite disability based on factor analysis of the results of 400 human subjects. Its reliability and apparent validity make the new CAPE Survey Score a useful measure for assessment of the dependency levels, which takes into account cognitive and behavioral deficits, of the elderly.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
