Concept information

Preferred term

Mattis Dementia Rating Scale  

Definition(s)

  • « a measure of general cognitive status commonly used both in clinical practice and research. The scale is divided into five subtests, measuring attention, verbal and motor initiation and perseveration, visuospatial construction, conceptualization, and memory. Items are arranged hierarchically, so that more difficult items are presented first. If an individual performs adequately on the initial items within a given section, full credit is given for the remaining items in that same section. » (Lucas et al., 1998, p. 537).
