pubmed-article:3666544 | pubmed:abstractText | A Multivariate Analysis of Covariance and Discriminant Analysis were carried out on complete WAIS profiles obtained from three groups of demented patients: Multi-Infarct Dementia patients, Senile Dementia of Alzheimer Type patients, and Alcoholic Dementia patients. A group of middle-aged Depressed patients was also included. WAIS did not differentiate among dementias, but Picture Completion and Block Design subtests proved to be effective in differentiating dementia from depression. | lld:pubmed |
