The Scales of Cognitive Impairment Rated From Institutional Records (SCIRFIR), a battery based on commonly used dementia rating instruments, was tested on the records of 26 chronically institutionalized, elderly schizophrenia patients, for the purpose of retrospectively evaluating the long-term course of cognitive change in schizophrenia and relating it to available autopsy materials. The inter-rater reliability of the component scales was high (Intraclass Correlations = 0.78-0.96), the final item scores were comparable to ratings on living subjects, and Alzheimer-type neuropathological changes were associated with a markedly deteriorating course. The substantial potential of this method is discussed.
