Preferred term

psychiatric rating scales  

Definition

  • With the exception of cognitive impairment, the prevalence of psychiatric disorders in older adults is lower than that observed in other age groups. Researchers have suggested that this may be due in part to selective survival or to a cohort effect. [Source: Encyclopedia of Health & Aging; Psychiatric Rating Scales]
